Lequart Blanc de Noirs meunier Extra Brut

Champagne house Lequart, located in the Marne Valley, is a family business that has been working with passion and respect for terroir and nature for four generations. Their specialization in pinot meunier, a grape variety long underestimated and often regarded as a blending grape, has undergone a remarkable evolution. When this grape is given the right location, microclimate, and low yields, it reveals its unique character and gastronomic strength, with expressive freshness and refined fruitiness.

We are especially proud to offer our own fully personalized Champagne, created in collaboration with Laurent from Champagne house Lequart. This cuvée is made from 100% pinot meunier and is a blend of at least three different vintages. After the second fermentation in the bottle, the Champagne ages for about 30 months ‘sur lattes’ — sometimes a little longer or shorter, depending on the characteristics of the most dominant vintage. Only this way can we achieve consistent flavor and quality in this cuvée.

The Marne Valley, with its rich limestone and clay soils and unique microclimate, provides the ideal conditions for pinot meunier. This Champagne has been exclusively composed by us as our house Champagne and reflects our passion for top quality.

In the glass, this Champagne reveals soft notes of roasted almond, with a floral and fruity character. The finish is round yet dry, while the fine, elegant bubbles gently rise, making the drinking experience perfect.

This cuvée is highly recommended for lovers who want to discover the versatility and finesse of pinot meunier. Cheers!
