The 2022 vintage for Adrien Renoir's 'Les Vignes Goisses' is from a 'warm and sunny year that delivered ripe' grapes, promising a Champagne of significant character. Adrien Renoir is celebrated for his single-parcel, single-vintage Blanc de Meunier, crafted from old-vine Pinot Meunier in the Grand Cru village of Verzy. His approach is pure, low-dosage, and oak-aged, reflecting a true grower style. The Renoir family's legacy in Champagne spans four generations, with Adrien embracing organic and biodynamic viticulture since 2017, and fermenting exclusively in oak barrels with indigenous yeasts. This Champagne is intense, structured, and distinctly vinous, showcasing a fine perlage, vibrant acidity, and a clear sense of place. It pours a pale gold to light straw with a persistent mousse. The nose offers ripe orchard fruit, citrus peel, delicate floral notes, and subtle brioche and spice from oak. The palate is medium-bodied and precise, with vibrant acidity, fine bubbles, and a clear mineral undercurrent. Its structure is firm yet refined, with a creamy texture from oak and lees, leading to a long, savoury, and mouthwatering finish with lingering citrus, nutty complexity, and a clean, chalky close. 【A terroir-driven, single-parcel, single-vintage Blanc de Meunier from old vines in Verzy Grand Cru, showcasing intense structure and vibrant acidity】 🍴 This serious, food-oriented Blanc de Meunier pairs beautifully with a range of dishes, including shellfish, crab, lobster, oysters, roast chicken, duck, pork, and light game. It also excels with mushroom dishes, charcuterie, semi-hard cheeses, and refined preparations where its fruit and acidity can balance richness. 🥂 Ideal for special celebrations, gourmet dinners, or as a sophisticated aperitif. It is approachable now but possesses the depth to evolve gracefully over several years in a cool cellar, making it a superb addition to any discerning collection.
