Pierre Moncuit, Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru Champagne NV

93 points Wine & Spirits
Moncuit’s wines are all from single villages and single years—this one from the family’s parcels in Le Mesnil-sur-Oger and the 2016 vintage. Fermented spontaneously in stainless steel, it is markedly tense and holds a lot of energy in its structure, even though it underwent malolactic conversion. There’s an elegant earthiness in its spring-meadow scent, like Queen Anne’s lace, and a note of green tea that extends through flavors of lemons and tangy orange. Cool and refreshing.

From grand cru vineyards in Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, this beautiful, ripe wine is on top form. Great minerality mingles with some bottle age, fruit and toast in harmony. This rich bottling is ready to drink. (12/2020)

Vinous Reverie Notes
Pierre Moncuit is based in the superb Côtes des Blancs village of Le Mesnil-sur-Oger.
It is Chardonnay-centric Champagne house produces distinct Blanc de Blancs cuvées with racy, superb expressions of the underlying chalky soils in which they are grown, and generous, youthful fruit expressions that makes them ideal wines to drink right out of the blocks, while still retaining all of the structural integrity necessary to age beautifully for years to come.
