A 100% Pinot Meunier champagne to express the right bank of the Marne from two plots in Vandieres. These are two of the oldest plots of Alexis' family, that come from his maternal grandmother’s side. The soils are sandy-limestone on top of clay-marl. The fruit here comes entirely from the 2018 vintage and is vinified in 400 liter barrels using indigenous yeast with no malolactic. This is a beautiful, salty, bright, lifted blanc de noirs with notes of granny smith apple and apricot. A truly chipper, elegant yet powerful champagne with a lot to give.
