Champagne AOC Brut Nature Blanc de Meuniers La Vigne d'Or 2006 Tarlant

What type of wine is it

Champagne Brut Nature Blanc de Meuniers La Vigne d’Or by Tarlant is a Champagne made solely from Pinot Meunier, sourced from a single plot in the Vallée de la Marne. The first fermentation takes place in barrique without malolactic fermentation, while the prise de mousse occurs according to the Traditional Method with a long aging on the lees in the bottle, defining a structured and complex style.

Where it comes from

La Vigne d’Or originates in the Vallée de la Marne, in Champagne, from a single plot with vines over 50 years old. The vineyard is set on chalky soil with the presence of clay, a factor that contributes to the wine’s identity and its single-parcel expression focused on the character of Pinot Meunier.

How it is produced

The Pinot Meunier grapes, harvested from the single plot, are vinified with a first fermentation in barrique and without malolactic, a choice that maintains a tauter profile. The secondary fermentation occurs in the bottle according to the Traditional Method, and the wine remains on the lees for many years, developing aromatic complexity, structure, and a fine-textured mousse.
