Robert Moncuit Blanc de Blanc Les Chétillons, Mesnil Sur Oger, Cotes de Blancs, Champagne 2015

The first vintage of Chetillons produced by Champagne Robert Moncuit was from the 2008 vintage. Les Chetillons, made famous by Champagne Pierre Peters, is a vineyard we have long admired. It encapsulates the heights that Chardonnay can reach in the Côte des Blancs. Robert Moncuit’s Les Chetillons comes from a two hectare parcel planted in 1956 in the village of Mesnil.

It is fermented in tonneaux and left in barrel until the April after harvest. The wine undergoes malolactic fermentation. It is bottled the July after harvest and is aged on cork before being disgorged. The wine is not chaptalized or filtered and is zero dosage.
