Why is that?<\/h4>\n<p>Meunier was often disparaged when used on its own and for years it was shunned by the big champagne houses. It was only Henri Krug who sang its praises. In the 1970s there was even a premium paid for what were called \u2018Noble Grapes\u2019 but it applied only to Chardonnay and Pinot Noir.<\/p>\n<p>Fortunately, for the past few years, Meunier has been regaining its reputation and today it\u2019s considered to be the perfect varietal for blending. You only have to look at the great Meunier champagnes of Ren\u00e9 Collard to see the truth of this.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/beveragewarehousevt.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/mousse-fils-effusion-champagne-brut-rose-wine-making-beverage-warehouse-vt.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4118\" src=\"http:\/\/beveragewarehousevt.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/mousse-fils-effusion-champagne-brut-rose-wine-making-beverage-warehouse-vt.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"784\" height=\"522\" srcset=\"https:\/\/beveragewarehousevt.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/mousse-fils-effusion-champagne-brut-rose-wine-making-beverage-warehouse-vt.jpg 784w, https:\/\/beveragewarehousevt.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/mousse-fils-effusion-champagne-brut-rose-wine-making-beverage-warehouse-vt-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/beveragewarehousevt.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/mousse-fils-effusion-champagne-brut-rose-wine-making-beverage-warehouse-vt-768x511.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 784px) 100vw, 784px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h4>Why is Meunier the preferred varietal at Champagne Mouss\u00e9 Fils ?<\/h4>\n<p>Our family has been growing Meunier for 12 generations and every generation has believed in its vast potential.
