Champagne Brut Blanc de Noirs 'Meunier' Apollonis

“Meunier” by Apollonis is the interesting pure interpretation of the symbol variety of the Vallée de la Marne, the Meunier. This label represents a dedication to previous generations by Michel Loriot, the winemaker currently at the helm of the family winery: a Champagne prepared according to the working method that grandfather Germain followed in the 1930s. His contagious passion for music is also remembered by including the cuvée in the “Sensations Vibratoires” collection: the Meunier vines benefit from listening to classical music in the vineyard, so that their resistance to adversity is naturally stimulated and subsequently in the cellar the wine evolves cradled by the notes of classical authors such as Brahms, Vivaldi, Elgar, whose vibrations reach all components of the structure favoring the complete expression of aromas and flavors.

clay soil with a concentration of limestone much higher than that of neighboring villages. The harvest is done by hand and, after pressing, the must ferments in enamelled concrete tanks. After the complete malo-lactic fermentation, the blending is done with 50% of reserve wines, aged using the Solera method, and then bottling for the sparkling process and refermentation in the bottle. The Champagne rests on its lees for 24 months, followed by the disgorgement and dosage operations that set the residual sugar at 9 grams per liter.

raw fish is an immediate pairing.
