Champagne Meslier & Pinot is a Rosé de Saignée Millésime 2019 Brut Nature

Since 2016, Aurélien Laherte is experimenting with the Petit Meslier grape, one of the rare and rarely grown grape varieties. In 2019 Champagne suffered severe weather conditions, frost in spring, heat and dry during summer with unprecedented sunburned grapes, however the quality of the juices was impressive in its richness and complexity. 

The maceration lasted only a few hours, the wine processing took place slowly in oak barrels and the bottling took place in April 2020. 30 months maturation on the yeast. Disgorged in October 2022 without dosage.

This cuvée was produced in a very small edition of only 669 bottles:

• As a reminder of the difficult 2019 season with juice intensity

• To understand and praise the magical Petit Meslier grape variety and to explore different winemaking methods
