Description

Champagne Extra-Brut 1er Cru "L'Hommée" | Wine from the House of Roger Coulon

Located in Vrigny, a village classified as Premier Cru on the Montagne de Reims, the House of Roger Coulon has been perpetuating a unique know-how for over eight generations. Under the leadership of Isabelle and Éric Coulon, this family estate is distinguished by its commitment to organic viticulture and agroforestry across its 11 hectares of vineyards. Respect for the terroir and innovation are at the heart of their approach, with precise and artisanal winemaking. Each grape variety and each plot are vinified separately, whether in stainless steel tanks or oak barrels, to extract the best from each harvest.

The Champagne Extra-Brut 1er Cru "L'Hommée" is a gem of the estate. The vines, over 50 years old, delve their roots into Thanetian sand soils and white chalk with flint. Cultivated without pesticides and in respect of organic practices, they express the full richness of the terroir. This champagne is a blend dominated by 60% Chardonnay and 35% Pinot Noir, completed by reserve wines aged in barrels up to 5%.
The winemaking process is natural: long pressing, short settling, fermentation with indigenous yeasts, and aging in demi-muids for 10 months. The wine is clarified without fining or filtration, then aged in bottles for at least 5 years. With a dosage of only 3g/L, this Extra-Brut champagne reveals remarkable purity and elegance.

On the nose, L'Hommée offers aromas of fresh citrus, white flowers, and brioche notes. On the palate, there is a beautiful structure, a marked minerality, and flavors of dried fruits, roasted almonds, and pears. The bubbles are fine and persistent, highlighting the finesse and balance of this champagne. The finish is long, with an elegant touch of bitterness that brings great freshness.

This champagne pairs perfectly with oysters and seafood, grilled white fish or in light sauce, as well as with soft cheeses such as Chaource or Brillat-Savarin. It also wonderfully accompanies a fruit-based dessert like a citrus tart or a lemon mousse.
