Pierre Moncuit Millésime 2012 Extra Brut

100% Chardonnay, Grand Cru

About 10 years bottle aging

Dosage: 3g/l

Tasting Nicola FEB23: Straightforward with creamy generosity, fresh with hints of brioche (will intensify with increasing maturity), very fine, elegant and at the same time powerful and extremely harmonious, balanced. Strong, already gives a lot of pleasure. No wonder it has matured for about 10 years and comes from one of the most sought-after Grand Cru locations in Champagne: le Mesnil sur Oger.

Nicola OCT23: Now opens up slowly and gets the beautifully ripe, nutty flavor. Very profound, rich in finesse, elegant, long nutty finish, great combination with the freshness of 2012.

"Special wines of le Point" NOV 23: 19/20

Giuseppe Lauria Editor-in-Chief WEINWISSER APR23: Powerful bouquet with mineral and freshly baked brioche notes. The crystalline delicacy and precision beams you straight to Le Mesnil-sur-Oger. Also very fine and elegant in the mouth, at the same time powerful and with a creamy texture, wonderfully harmonious and balanced. The 10 years of aging on the yeast come into their own here. Extremely stimulating. What a joy. Due to the high acidity typical of Le Mesnil, malolactic fermentation is carried out. The result is precise, linear wines that animate with their finesse-rich freshness and the clear fruit. 18/20-2029
