Jul 18th, 2021Apple, salted honey caramel, Meyer lemon brioche. I could smell this all day! Very fine bubbles, green apples and pear up front with a smooth rich mid palate and a balanced med long finish. Love this! 75% Pinot Noir, 25% Chardonnay. SS

what a great glass of vintage champagne especially for the price! Broad, creamy, flowery and firmly mineral on the finish. Great development all the way through. Such an '08.

Varietal Notes: 75% Pinot Noir, 25% Chardonnay
Organic: Practicing
Vineyard: 100% estate-fruit from Ambonnay, one of the largest Grand Cru villages.
Orientation: Vineyards in Ambonnay face due south, producing a warmer microclimate for the grapes.
Soil: This area consists of pure Belemnite chalk originating from Bouzy and continuing throughout most of Champagne. This unique soil allows the vines to root deeply, retaining the ideal amount of moisture while allowing the excess to drain away thoroughly
Viticulture: The Coutiers paractice "lutte raisonnée", a method of viticulture which encourages biodiversity and soil health. Coutier ploughs, uses no herbicides and grows grass between rows.
Vinification: This wine is vinified in stainless steel, and undergoes partial malolactic fermentation to retain freshness.
Aging: Aged for a minimum of three years in tank.
Notes: This vintage blend of estate Pinot and Chardonnay, all from Ambonnay, is deep and opulent, complex yet approachable -- great restaurant wines as it drinks well right out of the gate! Disgorged 4/29/2013, 6 grams dosage.
