Meunier Exploration

Three growers, three bottles of pure Pinot Meunier. Pour them side by side to taste how the grape changes from the Marne Valley to the Montagne de Reims.

The three bottles bought separately at Sip’s UK retail prices come to £195.

Famille Delouvin Meunier Perpétuel

In Vandières, Geoffrey Delouvin draws on a perpetual reserve that his family started in 1992. Look for the nutty flavour alongside the fresh fruit and a little salt on the finish.

Champagne Alexis La Terre Mère

Alexis Leconte works with old family plots in Troissy for La Terre Mère. It opens with redcurrant, then bramble and apple. A chalky bite cuts through the creamy texture.

Herbert & Co. 1000% Meunier

Thomas Herbert’s Meunier is vinified in small Burgundy barrels and aged on the lees for three years. Expect rich forest fruit and a touch of smoke.

Please note: Occasionally, due to stock availability, we may need to substitute bottles. In this situation, the replacement cuvées will be in the same style, and of the same or greater value.
