It is precisely when one thinks to know a vineyard by heart that one often makes the greatest discoveries. In this specific case, were are heading to Marne Valley, the undisputed realm of Pinot Meunier, a grape variety too often drowned in blends.
At Piot Sévillano, it is exactly the opposite. The grape varieties are vinified separately and expressed through a range that beautifully showcases the terroir.
Lovers of characterful champagne will be delighted.
