Troissy blanc
Meunier has always been tightly bound to our family culture. Coteaux Champenois is a perfect example of our sensitivity, precision and intuition regarding this grape variety. Planted from the very beginning through the use of massal selection, it demonstrates that the expression of the terroir can sublimate the expression of the grape variety.
