The Making of Pommery Louise Nature 2006 Champagne

The Cuvée Louise Nature 2006 is made from Chardonnay and Pinot Noir from three great Champagne terroirs: Aÿ, Avize, and Cramant. These Grand Cru terroirs give the cuvée its minerality and elegance.

The 2006 vintage, marked by great climatic generosity, allowed for a generous harvest and yielded grapes rich in flavors and complexity. This is a cuvée without dosage, meaning no sugar is added. This approach reveals the full purity of the wine, highlighting its terroir.

After bottling, the Louise Nature 2006 cuvée spent many years in the chalk cellars 30 meters underground. Protected from temperature variations, it benefited from a slow fermentation, ensuring bubbles of great finesse. The result is a structured champagne, but without excessive power, full of delicacy and depth.
