Description

Pierre Moncuit owns 18 hectares of Chardonnay vines in the famous Grand Cru Le Mesnil and also a parcel in the famous Chétillons vineyard. Nicole Moncuit now produces fine Blanc de Blancs. Stylistically, Pierre Peters, the most renowned winemaker in the village, seems to be the role model. The great salty, chalky minerality of the vineyards is rounded off with particularly attractive fruity notes, avoiding the harshness that Le Mesnil Champagnes can display in their youth. It is no surprise that the 2008 vintage is a complete success. It is wonderful to savour now. But it will continue to develop positively for a long time to come.
Ratings

94(90) Richard Juhlin champagneclub.com A brilliant wine from Moncuit made with accuracy, precision and passion. Floral elegance is beautifully paired with fruit that goes from green lime peels all the way to passion fruit and that ounce pineapple. Beautiful minerality and many similarities with Pierre Peters Chétillons.
