The Coquillette family is known mostly for Saint-Chamant; a house their family founded in the 1930’s. Stephane Coquillette now runs the operation and while he remains committed to his focus on Chardonnay for Saint-Chamant, his desire to work with Pinot Noir is expressed through his eponymous label.
Popped and poured; no formal notes. The “Cuvee Les Cles” is a Blanc de Noirs exclusively sourced from the village of Aÿ and therefore 100% Grand Cru. It’s a beautiful expression of Pinot Noir with a lovely mix of strawberries and raspberries. The fruit profile was generous which gave it an almost round impression even though the dosage was rather modest at 5g/l. The finish was rich and very enjoyable. A very lovely way to start the evening.

100% Pinot Noir, yet very pale yellow-green colored. Rainier cherry, golden apple, chalk, and an intense spray of purple flowers. The florality lingers into the gently nutty finish. Intriguing and delicious.

Awesome! A real mouth-filling bottle, a big red-fruit toned sparkler. It's such a well rounded wine that is could go with pretty much anything. Mouthwatering acidity, balanced fruit, great persistence. Yum.
