Prevost (La Closerie) Beguines Extra Brut [LCO19] NV

100% Pinot Meunier

Organic

Montagne de Reims, Champagne, France

Jerome Prévost is part of a small but growing group of tiny producers making intense, vinous-styled Champagnes. Rather than follow the traditional Champagne model of blending grapes, vintages, and vineyards to produce a "standardized" product, Prevost and his fellow "Champagne Renegades" produce single vineyard, single vintage and single variety wines. Quantities are extremely limited and Prévost wines have reached cult status in recent years. 

Two hectare vineyard of Les Béguines in Gueux, inherited from Jérômes grandmother. Planted in 1950s with massale selection cuttings.
