Clos du Mesnil is a rare blanc de blancs produced only in exceptional years from a single, tiny 1.84ha plot in the heart of Le Mesnil-sur-Oger. 2003 was a year of extreme warmth, producing an expressive yet beautifully balanced wine with no hints of excess. A more open-knit wine, it is attractive with candied citrus, quince, praline and spice. Serve with sole meunière.
