From a lieu-dit that sits in a small depression and where the soils are richer in clay comes the inaugural release of Péters's 2012 Brut Blanc de Blancs Cuvée Spéciale Les Montjolys, a lovely wine that offers up aromas of freshly baked bread, citrus oil, green apple, warm biscuits and white flowers. It's medium to full-bodied, satiny and enveloping, with the same incisive, chalky spine that characterizes Les Chétillons, but it has more finesse and less youthful austerity. It's a lovely addition to the range.

Here in its first release, the 2012 Blanc de Blancs Cuvée Spéciale Les Montjolys takes all of Pierre Péters signatures and gives them an extra kick of intensity that comes from the higher percentage of clay and generally heavier soils in this parcel, which sits just below Les Chétillons. Ample and explosive, with tremendous backing energy, the Montjolys has so much going on. Orange marmalade, spice, butter, hazelnut and lemon confit are front and center. More than anything else, the Les Montjolys possesses tons of breadth and resonance, not to mention considerable character. The Péters family owns three hectares across seven parcels in Montjolys, that form the backbone of the Cuvée de Réserve. This is the first release of pure Montjolys from Pierre Péters, and it is fabulous. Dosage is 3.5 grams per liter. Disgorged: November, 2018.
