From the importer: Robert Moncuit's Reserve Perpetuelle is a blend of reserve wines from various vintages, each of which is kept in tank separately before they are blended. The current release spans six different vintages, 2006 - 2012, and the dosage is 2 grams per liter. It is the same wine that the domaine used to just call Blanc de Blancs Extra NV.

Chalk is the name of the game at Champagne Robert Moncuit — hardly a surprise, considering the many plots they own, in some of the most esteemed parcels of the Côte des Blancs.
They've got a 2 hectare plot in Mesnil's Les Chétillons, a vineyard made famous by Pierre Peters (although you'd need a good deal of luck, and deep pockets, to find a bottle of that particular wine). The key element to this site's distinct minerality? You guessed it — chalk.

To better harness the incredible terroir they have, the family chooses to vinify all cuvées entirely in stainless steel and neutral oak, as they feel anything else would muddy the bright and fresh minerality.

The estate was founded in the late 19th century, but has only been imported stateside since 2000. From their top bottlings to his entry level cuvées, Robert Moncuit is one of our favorite growers.

"The citrus-golden NV Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru Extra Brut Réserve Perpétuelle offers a fantastic nose with great purity, finesse, elegance and a beautiful mix of Chardonnay chalk, yeast and oxidation. Very intense but always pure and precise. Intense and lush on the palate but also pure, tight and mineral, with chalky finesse and great tension, this cuvée reveals some fascinating matured fruit and wine flavors. The finish is lush and generous but precise, finessed and elegant, leaving the tongue with great tension, grip and structure. A great wine indeed." -Robert Parker
