"The 2020 Brut Nature Blanc de Noirs L’Arbe (100% Pinot Meunier) is fabulous and a big step up from last year’s wine. Crushed rocks, pear, slate and white pepper lend notable aromatic brightness. Meunier on sand can be magical, as it is here. The Brut Nature style lends notable energy throughout. Bottled with no dosage."
Winemaker Notes:
"L’Arbre is about pride of place for Vincent Cuillier. It is the family’s most historic parcel and where he began his explorations in natural viticulture and vitiforestry. The name “L’Arbre” (Tree) is a nod to his extensive work planting trees and increasing biodiversity. This 100% Meunier is exclusively made as a zero-dosage vintage Champagne. The depth and complexity of the wine speaks to Cuillier’s dedication and deft hand in the vines and cellar.
As befitting a fine 100% Pinot Meunier wine from this region, this shows plump forward berry fruit notes kept in line by crisp acidity and fine complex mineral based lines.
Indigenous yeast fermentation takes place in small stainless steel tank, followed by a full year of tank aging. This vintage cuvée spends the requisite 36 months sur lattes and sees no fining or filtration before being disgorged by hand with zero dosage."
Alcohol: 12%
