100% Meunier, and a lower pressurage. It is, touchingly, a tribute to Cédric's father, who was mayor of Cuisles and who "loved Cuisles." 50-50 2014-2015, available late summer, zero dosage; it's a rugged, muscular Meunier, showing more locality than fruit. Water drains into the soil's third layer, the green clay Illite, which occurs nowhere else in Champagne. If you want a solid contained Champagne (and fear a drop of sweetness will kill you) this one's pretty impressive

Disgorged in January 2018 without dosage, Moussé's NV Blanc de Meuniers Les Vignes De Mon Village is showing very well indeed, wafting from the glass with aromas of red apples, tangerine, mint and beeswax. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, with a deep but delicate core of crisp fruit, bright underpinning acids and a youthfully frothy mousse. The finish is long and fragrant, and the wine's quality of fruit amply supports its lack of dosage.

Crisp and focused, with a lacy mousse, this refreshing Champagne shows good balance and an appealing range of ripe white cherry and black plum, pink grapefruit peel, blanched almond and chalky minerality. Pinot Meunier. Disgorged May 2023. Drink now. 300 cases imported.
