100% Chardonnay sourced from the Cote de Sezanne just south of the Cote des Blancs, the Hugues de Coulmet is single vintage cuvee that spends 24 months sur lie prior to release. Pale straw lemon color with frothy mousse and lively bead of bubbles. A nose of fresh fruit with yeast, nutty notes and floral scents. On the palate flavors of peach, berry and citrus flavors with biscuit tones. Nice balance with acidity, delicate textures, medium+ finish ending creamy with toasty oak and chalky mineral character.

Long, almost brutal acid. Green apple and powdered granite. Very expressive.

Main accompaniment to a dinner of shrimp scampi & orzo. A fine persistent mousse with such clarity of flavors: baguette, white flowers, dry white peach. Enough body to meet the garlic & parsley. Yum.

Deliciousness!! Full-on malo at work on a rounded gold and green apple palette. Dry as an old bone with crispness and precision. I'd have this any night of the week. Every week

😍 roasted pineapple, lemon curd, quince, brioche, chantilly cream, Jasmine, honeysuckle, rich mousse, bright acidity, incredible balance and complexity at an insane price point.
