Champagne Blanc de Noirs Extra Brut 2013 | Wine of LA MAISON Roger Coulon

Champagne Blanc de Noirs Extra Brut 2013 | Wine from LA MAISON Roger Coulon

LA MAISON Roger Coulon rooted for more than two centuries in Vrigny, a 1er Cru terroir from the Montagne de Reims, embodies tradition and innovation. Under the direction of Isabelle and Éric Coulon, supported by their children Louise and Edgar, la maison is resolutely committed to an environmental approach, adopting agroforestry on its 11-hectare vineyard, a vision turned towards the future. The elaboration of their cuvées is a work of precision, with each grape variety and plot vinified separately, whether in stainless steel vats or oak barrels, adapting to the characteristics of each harvest. LA MAISON Roger Coulon is distinguished by the creation of authentic, elegant and pure champagnes, embodying the excellence of this exceptional family estate.

The Champagne Blanc de Noirs Extra Brut 2013 from the House of Roger Coulon is an exceptional cru from two prestigious vineyards in Champagne. The plots of old vines in "franc de pied" of the "Limons" in Vrigny (Pinot Noir) and the "Linguets" in Gueux (Pinot Meunier), cultivated in organic viticulture and agroforestry, capture all the richness of the terroir of the Montagne de Reims, at an altitude of between 100 and 120 metres. The 2013 vintage, despite capricious weather with high rainfall in spring and a dry summer followed by a wet September, stands out for its freshness and remarkable ageing potential. Natural vinification favours the expression of the terroir: long pressing, short settling to preserve the substance and phenolic compounds, spontaneous alcoholic fermentation with indigenous yeasts, and ageing on whole lees in vats for 10 months. Unfined and unfiltered, this champagne is dosed at only 3g/L, revealing all its purity and aromatic complexity after a minimum of 8 years of ageing.
