"A standalone Pinot Meunier bottling derived from vines planted in 1972, the 2018 Brut Nature Les Tiersaudes offers up notes of sweet red berries, cherries and apples, followed by a medium to full-bodied, ample and pillowy palate. This fleshy, pure and rich Champagne concludes with a chalky finish."

"The 2018 Brut Nature Meunier Millésime is a wonderfully pure, elegant wine. It shows the vintage's lighter style, yet all the elements are impeccably balanced. Crushed flowers, dried pear, mint, tangerine peel and hazelnut are beautifully lifted. It would be nice to see a bit more mid-palate juiciness, but this is the style of the year. Bottled with no dosage. Disgorged: July, 2022."

"This bright, dry and lively Champagne shows raspberries, oranges, candied ginger and dried flowers on the nose. Delightfully fruity and spicy, with tension and energy. I like it a lot. Disgorged March 2024. Drink now or hold."

"Geoffroy's 2019 Brut Nature Blanc de Noirs Les Tiersaudes, disgorged without dosage in March 2024, originates from old-vine Pinot Meunier—planted in 1972—on a south-facing mid-slope in the heart of Cumieres. These vines thrive on deeper soils compared to those of Les Collinardins. Aged for one year in oak, mostly demi-muids, this Champagne unveils an aromatic profile of pear, honeysuckle and grapefruit intertwined with notes of gooseberry and lime. On the palate, it is medium- to full-bodied, muscular yet incisive, with a concentrated core of fruit underpinned by electric acidity, concluding with a long, lemon-tinged finish."
