Sensory Description
This cuvee unfolds like a symphony on the senses, starting with a delicate nose of buttercream, lemon oil, golden apple, and whispers of baking spice. On the palate, its moderate weight is a marvel of balance, weaving creamy textures with bright lemon oil, pear galette, and a subtle nuttiness. The wine's maturity is evident in its seamless integration of ripe peach and apricot flavors, supported by brisk acidity and a nervy texture that lingers on an elegant, enduring finish.
Winemaker's Background
Vincent Couche's relationship with the vine began in childhood, under the watchful eye of his mother in the vineyards of Buxeuil. Trained in Beaune and enriched by experiences in Switzerland and Germany, he established his domaine in 1996. Inspired by agronomists, Vincent transitioned to organic and biodynamic farming in 1998, earning Demeter certification in 2011. His work is a labor of love, blending traditional methods with innovative techniques to craft wines that resonate with his deep respect for the land and the natural rhythms of the vine.
Serving Suggestions
Serve chilled at 45F in a flute or tulip glass to showcase its aromas and fine mousse. Ideal for celebrating life's milestones, this Champagne pairs beautifully with delicate dishes like poached lobster, truffle risotto, or a simple pear tart for dessert.
