The Coutier house style is accentuated by René’s vinification and cellar techniques that seek to marry the traditional richness of Ambonnay fruit with the racy and pure style that René cherishes. In this regard, only half of the Coutier wines go through malolactic fermentation, as René feels that this perfectly balances opulence with raciness in the finished wines.
This wonderful bubbly is made from Grand Cru Ambonnay fruit and you can taste it through and through. The wine has a deep vinous quality of broad red fruits from the Pinot and an underlying elegance from the Chardonnay, which makes it a great full bodied wine that works both as an aperitif or with a very broad range of foods. It has a fine delicate mousse and a big mid-palate that moves directly to a long and wonderful mineral finish. There is a fine balance of slight sweet and acidity as well.
