Blanc de Meunier Extra Brut

Mathilde Savoye

$90

Pinot meunier for the absolute win! To craft this complex and aromatic cuvée, Mathilde blends pinot meunier from the “Les Chapelleries” plot, planted in Cuchery in 1962, with more pinot meunier from a second plot called “La Loge des Vignes” in Baslieux-sous-Châtillon. “La Loge des Vignes” was planted in 2004 and 2007. With only 3 g/l of dosage, this is pure pinot meunier at its best — fresh and full of tension.

Region: MarneValley
Vintage: 2023 : 100%
Varieties: 100% Meunier

Growing up in a family of winemakers, surrounded by vineyards and a tradition of viticulture that dates back five generations, Mathilde Savoye knew from an early age that one day, she would make Champagne, too. Her father was reluctant to pass the family domaine to his daughter, so Mathilde decided she would break from the family estate and follow her dream of being a vigneron — all on her own. In 2017, after finishing her education, Mathilde started her domaine from scratch with 3.5 hectares of pinot meunier vineyards in Cuchery and Baslieux-sous-Chatillon.

From day one, Mathilde has worked in harmony with nature. She planted grasses, wildflowers and native herbs between the vines to promote healthy soils and to naturally manage pests. Rather than continuously tilling the soil, she disturbs it as little as possible. Grazing sheep keep the vegetation in check while their manure provides a natural fertilizer. She doesn’t use chemical treatments of any kind. Mathilde’s focus on biodiversity and sustainability earned her High Environmental Value (HVE) and Sustainable Viticulture in Champagne (VDC) certifications.

Mathilde allows her small, highly concentrated pinot meunier grapes to ferment naturally, and in her cold, dark cellar, malolactic fermentation is blocked to preserve the wine’s bright acidity. She rests each of her cuvées on the lees for 27 months and finishes each bottle with low dosage. Mathilde’s unique approach results in dynamic, energetic, fruit-forward Champagne with amazing texture.
