What to Expect

The third, and least used, grape of Champagne. Pinot Meunier has historically been used to add an earthy edge and aromatic depth to Champagne. It is also bottled as a still red wine where it displays its earthy edged cherry fruit on a medium-bodied frame. It resembles a rustic version of Pinot Noir, albeit with higher acidity and clumsier tannins.

Winemakers Notes

Pinot Meunier is the ballerina of red wine grape varieties--dainty in structure yet simply beautiful and enticing. It has been used traditionally in the making of Champagne and sparkling wines. A cousin of the Pinot Noir grape, Pinot Meunier's high tone fruit flavors and floral aromatics highlight the loveliness that you would find in bright, elegantly balanced Pinot Noirs.
