Pierre Moncuit Blanc de Blancs Brut Grand Cru 2006  - First Bottle

Reviews

93 Vinous -
The 2006 Brut Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru is a big, powerful wine. Just beginning to show the first signs of aromatic nuance, the 2006 will drink well with minimal cellaring. Hazelnut, dried pear, spice, menthol and licorice open up as the 2006 fills out its frame. Large-scaled and ample, the 2006 is another highly expressive and impeccable Champagne from Moncuit. Dosage is 7 grams per liter. Disgorged: November 2014.

We’re on a killer tear with world-class grower bubbly these days and Moncuit is our new go-to. We scored some of their 2010 Extra Brut last year and the reorder requests have been rolling in since. This amazing parcel just arrived direct from France and the 2006 is even more impressive! At 14 years since the harvest, this is really singing right now.

Located in Le Mesnil-sur-Oger where grand cru chardonnay reigns supreme, Nicole Moncuit owns some of the oldest vines along the entire Cote with an average age of 45 years. For those in the know, Moncuit is a must-have for anyone serious about Blanc de Blancs. The female winemaking touch is evident here with incredible precision and clear cut minerality, gorgeous texture and a sense of effortless power and length. See Galloni's note below, but be sure to snag some while we have it. Ground shipping included on 2 or more today!
