Gault&Millau's review

2019 92/100

Made from Pinot Meunier grapes alone, this non-blended cuvée is made exclusively from the 2013 vintage and left on its lees for two years. The wine's delicate pink color shows that it has not undergone any discoloration. Very meunier in spirit, this champagne has a nose of fine floral notes, cider apple and clove. The palate continues with a gourmet character focused on orchard fruits. A well-realized natural meunier, with freshness and dynamism.

Aurélien Lurquin

Aurélien Lurquin is one of the up-and-coming young generation in Champagne. A member of the Des pieds et des vins association (along with other winemakers featured in this guide, such as Guillaume Sergent, Barrat-Masson, Barbichon...), which aims to raise the profile of terroir-based champagnes, Aurélien now produces just a few thousand bottles a year of his assertive, beautiful style. For him, making wine means "using all five of my senses to discover the new juice, while allowing the twelve months that forged its identity to express themselves as purely as possible". A domaine that was still confidential just a few years ago, and whose cuvées now fetch stratospheric prices.
