Robert Moncuit Masterclass

Pit Spanke guides us through Robert Moncuit’s Champagne vineyards. Pit began his career in the wine industry at Nobelhart & Schmutzig in Berlin, before moving to Tantris in Munich and most recently working as a sommelier at Rosi in Zurich. We have been delighted to welcome him to the Smith Team for the past few months.

Robert Moncuit Champagne was founded in 1928. Pierre Amillet has been running the estate since 2000 as the third generation of the family and is a Récoltant-Manipulant, meaning he is both a producer and bottler. He cultivates his Chardonnay across 8 hectares in Mesnil-sur-Oger and Oger. This Grand Cru is famous for its stony limestone soils, which produce cool and precise Chardonnays.
Each plot is pressed and vinified separately. Malolactic fermentation is always carried out, except in very warm years. Cellar ageing takes place in stainless steel tanks and in barriques.
