The production of R.H. Coutier's Blanc de Blancs champagne

The Blanc de Blancs cuvée is a tribute to the terroir of Ambonnay, one of the few villages classified as Grand Cru where Chardonnay can express itself with such power. This champagne is made from Chardonnay from the 2020 harvest, complemented by 50% reserve wines, which add a touch of richness and aromatic complexity.

The vinification is carried out with care, combining oak barrels and stainless steel vats. After bottling, the cuvée spends at least two years in the cellars of the house to develop its aromas. The dosage of 5 g/L preserves the balance between freshness and roundness.
