80% Pinot Meunier and 20% Pinot Noir, this is a perpetual cuvée built from reserve wines spanning 2003 to 2019, topped up each year with 50% of the latest harvest. Vines planted mostly (90%) on green clays over chalky marl, across the villages of Cuisles, Jonquery, and Châtillon-sur-Marne. Manual harvest, gentle pressing, aging on lees, tirage, then a long rest on laths until disgorgement on January 8th, 2024. Without dosage (this is a brut nature) with just a touch of sulfur (19 mg/l total) — mine-derived sulfur, handmade by Cédric himself.
