Description
Terre du Mesnil 2017 is an exceptional cuvée born from the finest parcels of the legendary Le Mesnil-sur-Oger Grand Cru terroir — home to icons such as Krug Clos du Mesnil and Salon. The vines are rooted in prestigious lieux-dits: Les Vaucherots, Les Coullemets du Midi, Les Finciarts, and Les Chétillons.
Vinified entirely in oak barrels with 10 months of aging on fine lees and no malolactic fermentation, this Champagne preserves the energy and tension of Chardonnay at its best. The wine then rests sur lie in bottle for over 4 years before disgorgement, with a minimalist dosage of just 2 g/l, enhancing purity and chalky minerality.

Tasting notes
Elegant and profound, showing aromas of lemon zest, buttery pastry, white flowers and wet stone. On the palate, it delivers firm and creamy texture, vibrant acidity and a long, saline, chalky finish. A Grand Cru Champagne built for aging.
