80% Meunier, 20% Pinot Noir from a Perpétuelle reserve system dating back to 2003. Pale gold with fine, persistent bubbles and a luminous clarity. On the nose, expressive and vibrant. Aromas of red apple skin, ripe pear, lemon zest, and wild strawberry, underpinned by notes of toasted brioche, hazelnut, and chalky minerality. Hints of white flowers and subtle spice from extended lees aging. On the palate, dry and structured with elegant mousse. Rich Meunier fruit brings fleshy orchard fruit and berry notes, balanced by a core of vibrant acidity. The Pinot Noir adds backbone and a faint savory edge. A mineral-driven finish lingers with a touch of salinity and baked pastry. This wine is lovely and elegant, vinous, and terroir-driven—more gastronomic than aperitif in style. Pair with Duck rillettes or pâté en croûte or seared scallops. A roast chicken with herbs and lemon is also totally delicious.
