CHARACTERISTICS
Created 100 years ago by Eugène Moussé, founder of the house, this perpetual cuvée debuted in 2003 as a tribute to the family history. Initially named Carte Or, then Or Tradition, and finally L'Or d'Eugène, it evolved to celebrate the centenary with the introduction of Eugène. The Long Garde version of Cuvée Eugène illustrates Meunier's ability to age well while retaining freshness and tension.
