Description
Petit Meslier is the rarest grape variety in Champagne. This grape variety originates from eastern France and is planted in the Marne Valley and the Aube region of Champagne. It is a natural cross between Gouais Blanc (an old historical grape variety in Champagne) and Savagnin. Like the old varieties, particularly Arbane, it was abandoned because of its lack of maturity and the risks associated with frost and disease. It prefers deep, rich, clay-limestone soils on well exposed slopes. This variety produces white grapes with golden yellow skin. Its juice is very fresh and fragrant with notes of rhubarb.
