Champagne Régis Poissinet - Irizée Meunier 2016

Champagne Régis Poissinet - Irizée Meunier 2016

Irizée Meunier 2016 is a pure expression of Pinot Meunier from the Vallée de la Marne, where Régis Poissinet allows his biodynamic vineyards to express themselves without interference. This champagne comes from vines averaging 35 years old on clay and limestone soils, giving it depth and tension. Vinification followed Poissinet's philosophy of living equilibrium: natural fermentation without cold stabilization or filtration, followed by a full malolactic fermentation.

The wine was aged in equal parts in oak barrels and stainless steel, after which it was aged for two years in oak to develop its layering and creamy structure. Thanks to the cork aging and the limited dosage of 2.3 g/L, this cuvée retains impressive purity and precision. Irizée Meunier 2016 is simultaneously rich and refined, a champagne that combines the character of the Marne and the depth of Meunier in a single glass.

  • Indruk

    Golden yellow in color with a fine, persistent mousse. The nose reveals delicate aromas of ripe pear, roasted hazelnut, and brioche, subtly complemented by notes of honey and orange blossom. The palate is rich and layered, with a full structure and soft creaminess derived from the long oak aging. Flavors of peach, citrus, and toasted almond blend in a refined balance of freshness and depth. The finish is long, mineral, and elegant, a champagne with character, precision, and natural energy.

    Serve between 10 and 12°C.
    Store in a cool, dark place.

  • Productieproces

    The grapes for Irizée Meunier 2016 are carefully harvested by hand and used exclusively from the first pressing (Cuvée A). After spontaneous, natural fermentation with wild yeasts, controlled maturation follows: 50% of the base wine is aged in oak barrels, 50% in stainless steel tanks. Malolactic fermentation is carried out entirely to soften the acidity and achieve a rounded texture. No cold stabilization or filtration is used to allow the wine to retain its vibrant character. The wine then matures for two years in oak, where it develops in complexity and structure, before further developing under cork aging for added depth and nuance.
