Description
The Hommée from the Roger Coulon champagne house is a cuvée that is all about balance and precision.
L'Hommée is an old unit of measurement used to measure area. It represented the area of vineyard that a man could work in a day, or approximately 3.33 acres (333 square meters). The L'Hommée cuvée is made exclusively from grapes grown in vineyards that were once known by this agrarian measurement.
This cuvée is a blend of 60% Chardonnay, 35% Pinot Noir, and 5% Pinot Meunier from the Vrigny and Pargny terroirs, classified as Premier Cru. Part of the wine is vinified in vats and the rest in oak barrels. The wines are then aged in small Champagne barrels or demi-muids for 10 months on their lees.
Malolactic fermentation was carried out on this cuvée, which was then dosed at 3g/L. The Brut Réserve de l'Hommée cuvée was aged in cellars for five years before being released for tasting.
Presentation of Isabelle and Eric Coulon
Made exclusively from grapes grown in the oldest and most iconic vineyards of the Roger Coulon estate, L'Hommée is an authentic cuvée that stands out for its purity. Meunier, Pinot Noir, and Chardonnay grapes benefit from the exceptional exposure of the Vrigny hillsides. L'Hommée is a magical word that binds people to their land and their past.
Tasting
By Patrick BorrasRobe
The Ll’Hommée cuvée from Roger Coulon champagne has a light yellow color with golden highlights. Its bubbles are fine, discreet, and moderately intense.
Nose
On the nose, this champagne offers fresh, complex notes with brioche and butter aromas. On the second nose, more mineral notes emerge, bringing beautiful intensity.
Palate
On the palate, L'Hommée Roger Coulon reveals itself with a clean, frank attack and a beautiful balance between roundness and smoothness. Brioche and spicy aromas, punctuated by more mineral notes, give it length and elegance.
Service
This wine is perfect as an aperitif, awakening the taste buds. I recommend serving it at a temperature of 9°C.
