Information
Nicole Moncuit is one of the rare women winemakers in the region. Assisted by her daughter Valérie on the production side and her brother on the commercial side, she crafts her champagnes in a very individual way. This champagne house in the middle of the Côte des Blancs is known for the absence of reserve wine and use of 100% Chardonnay. The 20 hectare, family-owned vineyard is cultivated meticulously to produce distinguished and complex wines with delicate bubbles. Far from the spotlight, this limited production champagne is even more appealing because of its attractive price.
Pierre Moncuit's Blanc de Blancs Millésimé Non Dosé cuvée is produced from grand cru Chardonnay grapes... the highest possible distinction in the Champagne appellation. The wine is undosed, enabling it to express the full potential of the Mesnil-sur-Oger terroir, complemented by several years of élevage in the cellar to round out and enhance its aromas. This champagne has a straw-yellow colour with old gold hints, and offers a rich, complex bouquet characterised by buttery, toasted brioche aromas, as well as a remarkable vivacity courtesy of its mineral notes. In the mouth, the attack is rich and intense, fresh and pure, followed by the appearance of the brioche flavours typical of ripe Chardonnay. Perfect as an apéritif or as an accompaniment to grilled fish.
