On 11/2/20 Sauvage famille delouvin pinot mounier brut nature — 6 years ago
@Delectable Wine : This is the Delouvin Meunier perpetuel. I didn’t see it in the database.
Annual birthday WWC hosting. As normal, 1 sparkler, 3 whites, 4 reds, 1 dessert, all presented blind.
I knew nothing about this producer when I purchased, but I feel like Pinot meunièr can become magical when given age/healthy amounts of reserve wine. This is from a 1992-2017 solera. 100% meunièr. 5g/l dosage.
Faint salmon-tinge color to this. Aromatics aren’t overly expressive, but there is some honey roasted cashews and spiced pear. On the palate, this is absolutely delicious…loads of fruit (as meunièr normally shows) with golden and red raspberries, golden delicious apple, more spiced pear, nutty and baking spices. Creamy and layered, it has a profile of “freshly aged”, with the reserve wines coming in to play at the finish, broadening out the wine. No need to hold these. I should find more. — 2 years ago
Beautiful color, like if you were to look up the color palate for champagne it would be this. Slightly tinged with amber when the light crosses through.
Sumptuous and even unctuous aroma of chalk and peaches. Maybe a bit of bready goodness.
Bubbles luxuriate in a flurry. Swirls like the arms of the Milky Way atop its surface. A golden liquid of stone fruit, apricots, and white cherries. Lovely. A standout.

Great P. Meunier, good acidity that suggests we should wait a while to drink it again — 4 years ago

Her Mir Tage
This new-release champagne is bursting with fruity aromas, featuring the crispness of green apples blended with notes of orange peel. It offers the fresh sweetness of white pears and a hint of clove, complemented by a bright acidity reminiscent of lemon zest and a subtle mineral undertone. Most notably, the label is extremely charming, making this a highly affordable grower champagne. — a month ago
