This was consumed at the same time as a Laherte Ultradition. Both more in a vinous style, but the Coulon is more rich, savory and powerful. Love both!

Normally equal parts meunier/Pinot noir/chard. Gold in the glass. Mousse certainly isn’t as powerful or as aggressive as the Laherte Ultradition, but it is more creamy. This is a champagne that sports a more savory profile with a truffle cashew vibe, but has plenty of golden raspberries and lemon scone fruit flavors. Oak and use of reserve wine is noticeable here but they play to the background. A toasty champagne but not an overly yeasty one. I love this style. This is close in profile to my favorite large house producer, Charles Heidsieck (their brut reserve), but this is slightly more savory…the CHeidsieck has an extra dimension I just love, but this is a great alternative.

Plush with beautiful rich Pinot and real vivacity. This is a spectacular NV champagne at an everyday drinker price

Pears, green apples and blossoms. There really isn’t anything that grabs me or stands out or beckons me back. Cleansing and somewhat short finish. Meunier, Pinot Noir, Chardonnay. SS

Disgorged 02-2018. This was really nice from pop. Good cream, lemon, flowers, hint of butter, very easy to drink.
