Pierre Moncuit Coulmet Brut Blanc de Blancs Champagne (Base 2020) 750ml (Introductory Pricing)

Pierre Moncuit Coulmet Brut Blanc de Blancs (Base 2020) is a beautifully expressive grower Champagne made from 100% Chardonnay sourced from the Côte de Sézanne, just south of the famed Côte des Blancs. Produced by the historic family-run house of Pierre Moncuit, this cuvée offers a fresh and approachable introduction to the domaine’s elegant, Chardonnay-driven style.

Though labeled non-vintage, this release is based on the 2020 harvest. The wine is vinified in stainless steel and aged on the lees for approximately 24 months before release, giving it lovely texture and finesse while preserving its bright, mineral character.

In the glass, Coulmet opens with inviting aromas of white peach, lemon zest, green apple, fresh flowers and light pastry notes. The palate is crisp and lively, with fine bubbles and flavors of citrus, orchard fruit, chalk and subtle brioche. Clean, balanced and refreshing, it is an exceptional aperitif and also a wonderful match for shellfish, sushi, light seafood dishes and soft cheeses.

This is a terrific value in grower Champagne and a perfect bottle for those looking to discover the purity and charm of Blanc de Blancs Champagne.

Critical Acclaim

91 James Suckling: A fresh blanc de blancs with lemon, apricot and white-flower aromas, as well as some salty biscuit. It's fresh, elegant and balanced, with soft bubbles and a fruity, rounded finish.

91 Vinous: The NV (2018) Brut Blanc de Blancs Hugues de Coulmet is terrific. Rich and ample, the 2018 is wonderfully open-knit in this release. White peach, mint, white pepper, crushed rocks, slate and lemon oil are some of the many notes that grace this exquisite, wonderfully expressive Blanc de Blancs.
