Wine:

Made from the 2017 harvest base, the Brut Inflorescence Champagne combines Pinot Noir (two-thirds) with Chardonnay in a lively, intense bubble of great length. It is a champagne of beautiful substance, resulting from vines classified in first growths that craft full and voluptuous champagnes, with an assumed richness that is very well contained by a fine acidulous texture. The palate has a nice brioche touch of pastry, linked to notes of red fruits, which are signature of the pinot. The bubbles are very creamy, and we particularly appreciate the present patina of time which suits it so well and gives it a lot of charm. A superb, exclusive wine, ideal for the aperitif.

Hand harvested, harvest base from the 2018 vintage.

We have appreciated the Stéphane Coquillette Champagne for many years for its seriousness and its regularity; so we couldn't wait to share it with you! Located on the best terroirs of the Côte des Blancs and the Montagne de Reims, between the Grand Cru Chouilly and the 1er Cru Cuis for the chardonnay, the Grand Cru Aÿ and the 1er Cru Mareuil-sur-Aÿ for the pinot-noir, this modest address by its size delights all amateurs of finesse and elegance.
