Description

From the lauded 2008 vintage comes this golden hued vintage Champagne made from 75% Pinot Noir and 25% Chardonnay, nearly the exact breakdown of Coutier plantings. Lightly toasted with complex aromas of yellow fruit and palate that is both rich and taut. Round and fresh on the finish.

Coutier’s 2008 Brut Grand Cru is interesting to taste next to the Grands Vintages. Here the brightness, focus and tension of the 2008 vintage are front and center. Lemon peel, white, flowers, mint and chalky notes infuse this bright, finely sculpted Champagne. The interplay of Ambonnay Pinot with Chardonnay, along with the chiseled style of the year adds up a compelling and absolutely delicious bottle of Champagne.
