Prestige Cuvée 2013
Piot-Sévillano | Prestige Cuvée | Vintage 2013
Flight 2 with 4 more bottles from the advent calendar felt different from the start.
Fewer contrasts, fewer extremes – instead more substance, more warmth, more maturity.
While Flight 1 was heavily defined by acidity, dosage and tension, here Meunier in its classic, aged form took center stage: vintage, reserve wines, old vines.
Again opened and tasted in parallel, same glasses ( ), same order, same commitment to comparability.
The bottles:
Millésime 2013 Fruity-fresh, with fine sweetness. Surprisingly approachable for a vintage - less tension, more balance. -> 80% Meunier · 20% Pinot Noir · Vintage 2013 · 7 g/l
Brut Essence de Terroir Copper color, fine minerality, beautiful fruit. Notable: very present mousse, almost demanding. -> 70% Meunier · 15% Pinot Noir · 15% Chardonnay · 7 g/l
Cuvée Prestige Deeper, warmer, juicy. Toasted aromas only came after about ten seconds - lots of reserve wine, lots of patience. -> 80% Meunier · 20% Pinot Noir · ⅔ reserve wines · 7.2 g/l
Cuvée Provocante The most approachable wine in the flight. Spicy, balanced, classic Brut style despite 100% Meunier. -> 100% Meunier (old vines) · 6.5 g/l
Tasting Notes
A flight with four aged Meunier-focused champagnes, characterized by substance, warmth and maturity instead of acidity and tension. The wines show fruity sweetness, fine minerality, toasted aromas and spicy balance.
Flight 2 mit 4 weiteren Flaschen aus dem @piotsevillano Adventskalender fühlte sich von Beginn an anders an. Weniger Kontraste, weniger Extreme –…
