Champagne Roger Coulon Brut Nature Esprit de Vrigny Premier Cru
The embodied spirit of the terroir of Vrigny
Champagne Roger Coulon Brut Nature Esprit de Vrigny is a sensational Brut Nature crafted from a meticulous selection of the most representative and expressive Premier Cru Villages terroirs of Vrigny, in the Montagne de Reims, notable for their minerality. Chardonnays from chalk-dominated soils, pinot noirs from clay soils, and meuniers from sandy soils come together in a balanced blend, which included aging on lees in small oak barrels for 10 months, followed by an additional 6 years of maturation on the lees in the Domaine's underground cellars. With a fresh and delicate bouquet, this is a complex, mineral, and structured sparkling wine, with vibrant acidity and a saline, persistent finish. Simply exceptional.

Tasting notes
Fine bubbles of slow evolution adorn with brilliance a bright golden yellow color, with fine and soft bubbles.
The nose opens quickly, revealing aromas of apricot, dried fruits, and stewed prunes.
On the palate, it is very balanced, lively, and unctuous. A good combination between the richness of pinot noir, the creaminess of pinot meunier, and the citrus touches of chardonnay, culminating in a finish that reveals woody and subtly spiced notes.
