The 2018 Brut Nature Les Heurte-Loups is a powerful, expressive Champagne. All the weight of the old vines here (planted in Mardeuil by François Gamet in 1965), along with vinification and aging sur lie in oak for ten months, yields an especially resonant, ample Meunier. Dried pear, chamomile, ginger, cinnamon, dried apricot and yellow flowers build nicely with some coaxing. Attractive floral and nutty overtones linger on the close. Non-dosé. Disgorged: July, 2022

100% Pinot Meunier
