Jose Michel et Fils Brut Tradition NV  - First Bottle

Reviews

91 Vinous -
(70% Pinot Meunier and 30% Chardonnay; 9 g/l dosage): Light yellow-gold. Fresh tangerine, pear and sweet butter on the fragrant nose. Smooth and weighty in the mouth, offering pliant orchard fruit and melon flavors and a bracing kick of bitter citrus zest. A minerally element adds lift and cut to the penetrating finish, which leaves a suave floral note behind.

Too late, we are SOLD OUT!
Jose Michel made his first vintage in 1955 and thanks in part to his cellar of very old bottles of Pinot Meunier, he has developed a cult following for his Champagnes. This wine is built with 70% Meunier and the rest Chardonnay from their limestone soils.

About the Producer

The Domaine Jose Michel is located in the village of Moussy, just south of Epernay in the heart of Champagne. This Pinot Meunier virtuoso has owned vineyards since 1847 and is one of the oldest wine growing families in the village. They are a founding member of the group Tresors de Champagne known as the Special Club. The vineyard sights with a richer clay soil are planted to Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier. The lower slopes which have a calcareous soil are planted to Chardonnay. The wines all go through malo so expect vinous, creamy textured wines.
