Éric Taillet Champagne - Exlusiv’T 'Blanc de Meunier' NV
IN STOCK
$70.00
Nestled in the heart of the Marne Valley, the Taillet house marketed its first bottles in 1961. Today managed by Eric Taillet, the 4th generation, it asserts itself more than ever in its philosophy of working the vines while respecting the environment and in harmony with nature. A perfectionist, who wishes to preserve in each of his champagnes, a typicity and a style that is recognized at the first sip.
Pinot Meunier is the emblematic grape variety of the Taillet estate, only in very old vines on living clay soils and limestone, flint, marl and clay subsoils.
Exlusiv’T is a single varietal, low dosage, which displays the unique expression of Meunier. Velvety, creamy and rich, including 20 to 30% reserve wines from a perpetual reserve since 2011, dosage: 2.5 g / l and maturation of 2 years on laths and on tips.
On the nose, a lively first impression that opens with yellow and ripe fruits such as apricot, lightly stewed and caramelized. On the palate, a creamy note reminiscent of vanilla cream, pastries with a quick white floral touch. A smooth and elegant champagne, powerful and round.
