The Moncuit family began purchasing vineyards here in 1889 and were bottling at their domaine by 1928, focusing almost exclusively on Chardonnay from their Grand Cru parcels in Le Mesnil and nearby Oger. Over successive generations the estate has built a reputation for mineral‑driven Blanc de Blancs Champagnes that combine precision, focus and expressive terroir character, produced with meticulous vineyard care and low intervention winemaking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Les Grands Blancs Grand Cru NV is made entirely from Chardonnay harvested by hand from the Moncuit family’s Grand Cru vineyards in Le Mesnil‑sur‑Oger and Oger. The base wines are fermented with a mix of stainless steel and older oak to build texture, blended across recent vintages and then subjected to secondary fermentation in bottle using Méthode Champenoise. Extended lees ageing before disgorgement gives fine, persistent mousse and depth of flavour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOrigin \u003cstrong\u003eFrance, Champagne, Le Mesnil-sur-Oger GC\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGrapes \u003cstrong\u003eChardonnay\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVintage \u003cstrong\u003eNV\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlcohol \u003cstrong\u003e12 %\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStyle \u003cstrong\u003e Mineral driven, Citrus Traditional Method Champagne\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBottle size \u003cstrong\u003e75 cl\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWinemaking \u003cstrong\u003eChardonnay from Grand Cru parcels in Le Mesnil‑sur‑Oger and Oger, base wines fermented in stainless steel and older oak, blended across recent vintages then secondary fermented in bottle by Méthode Champenoise with extended lees ageing.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNotes \u003cstrong\u003eLow intervention Organic Sustainable Viticulture Indigenous Grapes, Disgorgement Feb 2024, dosage 0 g\/L\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Robert Moncuit","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55497746186616,"sku":"LEGRBLCA-NV-RBM-SPA","price":58.4,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0040\/6070\/8993\/files\/RobertMoncuitChamp.png?v=1773251448"},{"product_id":"champagne-les-mesnil-grand-cru-robert-moncuit-2015","title":"Champagne Les Mesnil, Grand Cru, Robert Moncuit 2015","description":"\u003cp\u003eRobert Moncuit is a historic grower Champagne estate based in Le Mesnil sur Oger, one of the Côte des Blancs’ most revered Grand Cru villages for Chardonnay.

The chalk rich soils and cool exposures of the village produce wines defined by precision, acidity and a distinctly saline structure. The 2015 vintage brought greater ripeness and breadth than cooler years, giving the wine additional generosity while retaining the tension that defines top Mesnil Chardonnay. Vinification is carried out with a focus on preserving vineyard expression and freshness, while extended lees ageing builds texture and complexity over time. The wine shows lemon curd, green apple and ripe citrus, layered with white flowers, toasted brioche and a pronounced chalky mineral character.

The vineyard sits on pure chalk soils that naturally emphasise acidity and saline drive, giving the wine a more focused and architectural profile than broader Côte des Blancs expressions. The 2016 vintage brought strong concentration balanced by freshness and energy, producing wines with both immediate clarity and long ageing potential. Vinification is deliberately restrained, allowing the character of the vineyard to remain central, while extended lees ageing contributes depth and texture without diminishing the wine’s linear structure. The wine shows lemon zest, green apple and white peach, layered with white flowers, toasted almond and an intensely chalky mineral backbone.
