Domaine Aurélien Lurquin
Les Crayères du Levant Brut Nature Meunier
Champagne, France
With the Rosé having been a total stunner a few weeks back from this Meunier specialist, I was excited to try this BdN given my adoration for Jérôme Prevost. It certainly did not disappoint! 100% Meunier, with a mere 579 bottles produced. It’s incredibly energetic with an ultra precise palate and impeccable concentration. A gentle decant brings out its layered and complex core of caramelized apples, mandarin oranges, jasmine flowers and smokey minerals. A touch of oxidative expression adds to complexity. Very exciting stuff.
