The second cuvée from the Moncuit domaine is produced solely using wines from the Le Mesnil sur Oger vineyard. Here too the wines are made from a single vintage. 100% Chardonnay Blanc de Blancs Dosage: 6g/l Nicola OCT23: A little darker than Pierre Moncuit's Hugues de Coulmet, more body, more power, more grip, a little darker, more distinctive, more mineral

The base cuvee from the Moncuit domaine is produced using only wines from the Sézanne vineyard. The soils there, according to Nicole Moncuit, tend to be sandier with a higher chalk composition. 100% Chardonnay 1er Cru Dosage: 6g/lNicola MRZ25: Delicate introduction to the world of Pierre Moncuit Champagne: balanced, elegant, low in acidity, charming, yet profound. The perfect spring and breakfast champagne. Nicola OCT23: Super smooth and delicate, nutty reverberation, balanced, clear, beautiful. Antonio Galloni Vintage NV – 90P: This is a terrific entry-level wine in this range. Orchard fruit, chamomile and dried flowers are all laced together in a vinous, creamy Champagne that is hugely appealing. There is lovely depth and texture here. Floral and tropical notes add an exotic flair on the close.

Here too the wines are made from a single vintage. 100% Chardonnay Blanc de Blancs Dosage: 6g/l Nicola OKT23: A little darker than Pierre Moncuit's Hugues de Coulmet, more body, more power, more grip, a little darker, more distinctive, more mineral Antonio Galloni Vintage NV – 93P: The Brut is effusive, bright and focused. The added dosage in the Brut version versus the Extra Brut lends texture and resonance while enhancing all the orchard fruit, citrus and floral flavors. Ample and broad, with notable depth, the Brut is a pure and total delight.   

The second cuvée from the Moncuit domaine is produced solely using wines from the Le Mesnil sur Oger vineyard. Here too the wines are made from a single vintage. 100% Chardonnay Blanc de Blancs Dosage: 2g/l Awards: "Special wine of le Point" : 17,5/20 Nicola OCT23: Even more grip and character than the Delos Brut, cooler and darker in minerality Antonio Galloni Vintage NV – 92P: The Extra is fabulous. Bright and full of energy and sizzles with tension. Lemon peel, white flowers, mint and white pepper are all beautifully lifted. The Extra Brut really comes alive with a bit of time in the glass. It's a style that works so well at Moncuit. 

85% Chardonnay, 15% Pinot Noir Dosage: 7g/l Pierre Moncuit is famous for its Blanc de Blancs but it also produces an excellent Rosé. The grapes are from Le Mesnil (Chardonnay) and Ambonnay (Pinot Noir). The color is very light which is preferred by the family: “It's very easy to drink it in the afternoon instead of a cup of tea.“ says Nicole Moncuit and we agree! :) Nicola OCT23: Fine berries, mineral, elegant, very slightly dark note, which also makes it distinctive and somewhat full of character. This makes it also suitable as a meal companion! David OCT23: red berries and generous at the first impression, elegant and fresh vinosity, earthy persistent

100% Chardonnay From two Grand Cru terroirs: Le Mesnil, Oger Blend of two consecutive vintages 10 months aging in wood without battonage Unfiltered 2-3 years bottle aging Dosage: 0g/l Malo: Yes Great introduction to the Côte des Blancs! The Chardonnay grapes come from two Grand Cru terroirs: Le Mesnil and Oger. An ideal combination, according to the winemaker Pierre Amillet, because Le Mesnil is very firm and acidic, a little softer Ogre. Tasting: Very fine character; light biscuit and delicate smokiness on the nose, lively and wonderfully fresh on the palate.

One of the absolute finest blends the estate has to offer: Each vintage champagne from Nicole Moncuit Vielle Vigne is made from 90 year old vines from a single vineyard in Les Chétillons, one of the most prized vineyards in Le Mesnil. This champagne is produced only for exceptional vintages. 100% Chardonnay Dosage: 3g/l Antonio Galloni Vintage 2006 – 94P: The Cuvée Nicole VV emerges from old vines in Les Chétillons, one of the most renowned lieu-dits in Mesnil. More of a wine than a Champagne, the VV possesses notable textural richness and gravitas, both of which build with a bit of time in the glass. This is a terrific choice for readers who enjoy Champagnes with the complexity that develops in bottle over time.  Ratings: For 2006: Gold Medal at Effervescents du Monde 2020 + Top 10 For 2005: Gold medal at Effervescents du Monde 2017 + Top10
