From the excellent 2012 vintage, this Blanc de Blancs comes solely from the chalky soils of Le Mesnil-sur-Oger and was aged a full 12 years on its lees before disgorgement, with a dosage added of 3 grams per liter. The nose combines the aged quality of its long passage with lees-- a bakeshop aspect combined with just there citrus and a core of ‘minerality.’ The palate is lighter with good acidity and a truly beguiling and balanced palate that echoes the nose with a good sense of presence to the flavors. - D\u0026amp;M TASTING NOTES (MK, 10\/2025)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003chr\u003e\u003cp data-placeholder=\"Type text and format it using the toolbar.\"\u003e“Nicole and Yves Moncuit have guided this excellent domaine, located in Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, since they took over from their father Pierre in 1977. Nicole, the winemaker and grower, and Yves, in charge of the commercial side, are the latest generation in a line of vignerons that stems back more than a century. The Moncuit siblings own fifteen hectares of vines surrounding Mesnil, mostly old vines that average 50 years of age. Their high percentage of old rootstock is a rarity in Champagne, where vines are routinely replanted once they reach their twenty-fifth birthday.” - IMPORTER NOTES\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Avanelle Wine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43674613645363,"sku":"WIN-2744","price":99.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0644\/8280\/3763\/files\/f0abbd5e-e3be-48e7-8203-70e13adbf339_85a2f3ac_c42b68fb1140614a56daf1a4f6e6e2d075b13adf_WIN-2744.png?v=1760392179","url":"https:\/\/londonmarketsf.com\/products\/pierre-moncuit-vintage-2012","provider":"London Market SF","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
