standout project by renowned Chablis producer Patrick Piuze

about Chablis producer Patrick Piuze’s “second” winery, co-owned with Moutard-Diligent in nearby Tonnere, who have been making champagne for four generations. There are two sparkling wines, made in an extremely lean style.

wines tasted

Brut Non Dosé NV ($25)

Nine months lees ageing, no dosage. 100% Chardonnay. Lean, acidic, green apples: think of it as a sparkling Chablis.

Brut Nature Rosé NV ($24)

Nine months lees ageing, no dosage. 100% Pinot Noir, with brief maceration for colour. Surprisingly lacks character.
