Mousse Fils Champagne Special Club Les Fortes Terres Brut - 2018 (750ml)
Mousse Fils Champagne Special Club Les Fortes Terres Brut - 2018 (750ml)
This exceptional Champagne is made from 100% Pinot Muenier grown on a single site on the top of the hill in Cuisles on green clay and limestone marl soils. It was fermented in stainless steel tanks and underwent malolactic fermentation. Aged for 48 months on its lees in the bottle prior to disgorging. Exceptinally low dosage of 0.5g/l. This was the first ever 100% Muenier wine to be accepted by the Club Tresors.
The 2018 Brut Les Forts Terres (100% Meunier) is a bold, explosive wine that shows a notably exuberant expression of Meunier. Ripe pear, spice, flowers and mint are nicely amplified. Even with minimal dosage (0.5 grams per liter), the 2018 is on the riper side. All this needs is more mid-palate persistence, but it is still very nicely done. Disgorged: January 11, 2023 - Antonio Galloni
