Tasting notes
The 2006 Brut Nature La Vigne d'Or is 100% Meunier from the Pierre de Bellevue lieu-dit in Oeuilly that spent 15 years on the lees. A Champagne of textural breadth and energy, the 2006 is so expressive. Dried pear, sage, mint, ginger and crushed flowers gain in volume and precision as this sits in the glass. There is so much to like here. Disgorged: June 5, 2023.

A golden yellow hue, the 2006 Champagne Blanc De Meuniers La Vigne D’Or is ample and lush with aromas of toasted almond croissant, fresh nectarine, and white strawberry. Full-bodied, with a rounded mousse, it is fleshy and ripe through the palate and doesn’t feel as if it’s lacking for dosage. It has a pillowy mousse and a bit of pithy bitter orange citrus on the long finish. Juicy and ample, it’s very attractive now and will drink well over the coming ten or more years. Disgorged June 2022.
