Description

From the oldest parcel of Pinot Meunier vines, this is always a wonderfully deep and vinous expression of Pinot Meunier, about as good as it gets….
“The 2018 Extra Brut les Vignes d’Autrefois is a selection of 100% Pinot Meunier sourced from vines planted between 1947 and 1964.  Deeply pitched and vinous, the Autrefois fills out beautifully with a bit of time in the glass.  The aromatics alone are thrilling, but all the elements are so well balanced.  Old-vine Meunier planted on chalk yields a Champagne that deftly balances richness with vibrancy.  The Autrefois nimbly captures the essence of the house style.  It’s a gorgeous Champagne from Lahèrte.  Dosage is 2-4 grams per liter.  Disgorged November ’21.” 94 Galloni
