Description

The Blanc de Blancs vintage of R.H. Coutier champagne is an atypical vintage. Its Chardonnay, planted on a terroir where Pinot Noir reigns, produces a champagne that combines power and elegance. It is a vintage of great freshness and minerality, ideal for an aperitif or to accompany seafood.

The Making of R.H. Coutier Blanc de Blancs Champagne

The Blanc de Blancs vintage is a tribute to the terroir of Ambonnay, one of the rare villages classified as Grand Cru where Chardonnay can express itself with such power. This champagne is made from Chardonnay from the 2020 harvest, complemented by 50% reserve wines, which add a touch of richness and aromatic complexity.

The winemaking is done with care, combining oak barrels and stainless steel vats. After bottling, the vintage spends at least 2 years in the house's cellars to develop its aromas. The dosage of 5 g/L preserves the balance between freshness and roundness.
