Jerome Prevost La Closerie Les Beguines, Champagne, France 2023
La Closerie “Les Béguines” Champagne 2023 is a cult, terroir‑driven grower Champagne made entirely from Pinot Meunier in Gueux (Montagne de Reims). The 2023 vintage shows vibrant aromas of red apple, pear skin, citrus peel, and wild strawberry, layered with subtle spice, chalky minerality, and a savory, oxidative edge that reflects Prévost’s low‑intervention style. On the palate it is energetic and textural, with fine mousse, brisk acidity, and a long, saline finish that feels both precise and soulful. More Burgundian in spirit than classic house Champagne, Les Béguines is prized for its purity, individuality, and expressive sense of place.
