Located in Mesnil sur Oger, in the heart of the Côte des Blancs, Champagne Pierre Moncuit, family House and grower-handler, has based his reputation on a continual research of quality in respect of traditions. Since 1977, Nicole Moncuit, both passionate by winemaking and by the culture of the vine, has taken over the technical direction of the House. Her expertise enables her to develop the most typical aromas of the harvest each year. Yves Moncuit, her brother, handles the marketing in France and abroad. Nicole’s daughter, Valérie, joined them.

'Moncuit's Extra Brut Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru Millesimé shows a different facet of its personality in this version, with lower dosage vis-à-vis the Brut version. Here the flavors are brighter and more sculpted throughout. Hints of toastiness, almond and tangerine oil add an exotic flair that makes the Extra Brut absolutely beguiling. Lower dosage seems to exalt the minerality and bright acids of the year, while pushing the fruit a bit into the background. Both Brut and Extra Brut bottlings are terrific; choosing among them comes down to personal preference. Dosage is grams per liter. Disgorged November 2020.' - Vinous Media - 94 points
