F&R Miniere, Champagne Influence Brut, NV [2021]
Influence is the flagship cuvée of Champagne Minière F&R, a family-run estate established in 1919 and now led by fourth-generation brothers Frédéric and Rodolphe. The blend combines 40% Pinot Meunier, 30% Pinot Noir and 15% Chardonnay with 15% reserve wines, aged for seven years on its lees. The barrels are a mix of young (less than 4 years) and mature (over 5 years) French oak. The result is bold and complex, with citrus and chocolate aromas underlined by a long finish, a full-bodied palate with racy acids and a penetrating, saline conclusion.
