missing length. 89 (1873 views) | | | Tasted by finlero on 1/28/2022 & rated 87 points: The acidity is pretty assertive, but the citrus flavors are lovely. Honey on the finish. (1358 views) | | | Tasted by Kcornett on 12/25/2021 & rated 89 points: Nice blend of brut with citrus. Not classic flavors but enjoyable. (1345 views) | | | Tasted by MAXIMUM SATISFACTION on 7/16/2021 & rated 92 points: Disgorged 11/19. Deep golden color with tiny faint bubbles. Brioche on the nose ripe red berries on the palate. Slightly sour on the finish. Leans more full bodied than I was expecting but very nice. (1863 views) | | | Tasted by MAXIMUM SATISFACTION on 1/30/2021 & rated 91 points: Good quality for the price. Red berries, mineral and a touch of toast. (2029 views) | | | Tasted by mreinitz on 1/21/2021 & rated 91 points: We’ve noticed some bottle variation with this. While our previous bottle was pedestrian and disappointing this one was full of verve. Plenty of citrus flavor, especially lemon, with a hint of apple and a nice beam of minerality that intensified on the finish. A nice way to toast our new president. (1041 views) | | | Tasted by talbot61 on 6/8/2020 & rated 90 points: This is effectively our house champagne -- consistently balanced and delicious and a great bargain. These birthday bottles served as confirmation. (1440 views) | | | Tasted by GrapeScott on 3/14/2020 & rated 91 points: Really lovely stuff. Very light color, with citrus and brioche, and a dry mineral finish. The dosage on this bottle is 3 g/L, disgorged 11/2018. The level of dryness is just about perfect, neither austere nor rich. Great as an apertif, but would go well with food as well. (1466 views) | | | Tasted by Aravind Asok on 1/24/2020: Breadier than I remember, but good.lemon-lime and a touch of vanilla. On the palate, lovely acidity, lemon oil, wet stone, good density. Lemon oil on the clean finish. This is a terse note, but excellent. (1381 views) | | | Tasted by vinhonotte on 11/14/2019 & rated 92 points: Pale lemon. Elegant aromas of white spring florals, lemon peel, and wet stones. Slightly beery hoppy flavours, and a strong sense of brine, floral, and lemons. Great length. Nice! (1395 views) | | | Tasted by OaktownRush on 10/11/2019 & rated 95 points: Croissant-like ready note on the nose with some hints of citrus and lemon. The palate lets the fruit show through a bit more with apple, lemon, and a rich cooked citrus, like that of pears cooked in a brown liqueur. This champagne is excellent and a great value in my opinion. (1414 views) | | | Tasted by psi on 9/14/2019 & rated 89 points: Would have prefered a more tight expression. A bit too fruity and too eager to please (1047 views) | | | Tasted by mary k on 7/4/2019 & rated 90 points: - Yellow color - Light in color. Fresh. Delightful with lobster and shrimp on the grill. (1119 views) | | | Tasted by Aravind Asok on 3/15/2019: Nice nose with a touch of lemon/lime, a hint of bread, loads of florals and a touch of oak. On the palate, just fantastic acidity, and good density though bubbles come off a bit coarse...very clean finish with lemon and stone. Good without being particularly distinctive. (1209 views) | | | Tasted by bbrockwine on 2/8/2019: . (1034 views) | | | Tasted by yinha on 8/5/2018 & rated 90 points: Enjoyed with dim sum - very crisp and refined. Look forward to trying again at a slightly warmer temp to see if the nose reveals more. (1754 views) | | | Tasted by brygct on 7/21/2018 & rated 95 points: Absolutely delicious, just as we tasted it in the champagne makers cellars... crisp, mineral, effervescent, lemon peel, ginger, creme brûlée.. incredible wine (1456 views) | | | Tasted by peternelson on 12/10/2016 & rated 91 points: Lots going on here with this 50/50 PN-Chard blend; excellent yeast character and fruit, peach pit; However, the most interesting was that there was this distinct peanut, egg noodles and lime aspect to it. No, I didn't have this with Pad Thai. On top of that the body was balanced, good tart acid, long in the mouth. Ymmy stuff. (3043 views) | | | Tasted by jlm on 11/3/2016: Very nice bottle for my palate. Distinctly oxidative aromas on the nose, with nut skin and yeast. The palate is a picture of balance, the dosage low enough to let the firm minerality sit in the foreground with the fruit playing a supporting role. Loved this. (2716 views) | | | Tasted by MartyL on 9/5/2016 & rated 89 points: Just fine I guess but mostly just decent inoffensive if unremarkable Champagne. No complaints here other than maybe a smidge too much sweetness on the palate. (2891 views) | | | Tasted by aquacongas on 5/22/2016 & rated 91 points: 6g Doasge, nicely balanced, maybe a hint too sweet in the finish, but after drinking 20 champagnes of zero dosage every wine feels "sweet", toast, apricot and citrus (2814 views) | | | Tasted by wineismylife on 5/21/2016 & rated 93 points: WIML93
Tasted non blind.
Disgorged 04/2015. 6 g/l. Straw to like yellow color in the glass, clear looking throughout with tiny, steady beading. Nose of yellow pear, yellow apple, a splash of citrus and a hint of cookie dough. Flavors of lemon, sherry, green apple and tart pear. Bright acidity, full bodied. Drink or hold. (3035 views) | | | Tasted by peternelson on 12/13/2015 & rated 91 points: Really liked this, with complex, rich mouth, good intensity, and long finish. Yeasty, slight wood note showing through adding earthy character mixed with pure orchard fruits. 1/3 each grape, aged 5 yrs, 7 mo. in old oak, indigenous yeast, 6g/l. (1849 views) | | | Tasted by CamWheeler on 2/25/2015 & rated 89 points: Dots and Bubbles with the Trait-d-union (Sydney, Australia): Equal parts Chardonnay, Pinot Noir & Pinot Meunier. 2010 vintage base, 5 g/l dosage.
Smoky, graphite and apple nose - draws you into the wine nicely. Clean and slightly tart, the fruit is fairly lean and I feel a touch more density would fill out the palate, but as it stands it is refreshing to drink. Finishes with medium length. A couple of years of bottle age would likely serve it well. (2590 views) | | | Tasted by RolfT on 2/3/2015 & rated 87 points: Deg 02-2014 so almost no post disgorgement age - but damn good anyway! This was really a positive surprise. Very reshing and not overly acidic. Like 7-up for adults, with more spice and complexity.. This was really excellent with Spaghetti Cabonada.

Farming: Sustainable
Coulon is a member of the Trait d’Union; a six-member collective pledging to farm sustainably and produce terroir-expressive wines. The other five members would include Egly-Ouriet, Larmandier-Bernier, Selosse, Prevost, and Jacquesson.
Coulon is the caretaker of some extremely old vines and that vine age is evident in the wines. Extraordinary richness of fruit, with underlying brushy herbs, chalky minerality and fresh white flowers. - from Pogo’s websiteChampagne Blend"Champagne blend" is a classic grape blend that typically includes Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and/or Pinot Meunier in any proportions.
However, this blend can also include Arbane, Fromenteau (Pinot Gris), Petit Meslier and/or Pinot Blanc as well.France Vins de France (Office National Interprofessionnel des Vins ) | Pages Vins, Directory of French Winegrowers | French Wine (Wikipedia)

France - When it comes to wine, France stands alone. No other country can beat it in terms of consistent quality and diversity. And while many of its Region, Bordeaux, Burgundy and Champagne most obviously, produce wine as rare, as sought-after and nearly as expensive as gold, there are just as many obscurities and values to be had from little known appellations throughout the country. To learn everything there is to know about French wine would take a lifetime. To understand and appreciate French wine, one only has to begin tasting them.

Sub-Region:
Champagne - The French region of Champagne (including the cities of Rheims, Épernay, and Aÿ) was the first region in the world to make sparkling wine in any quantity. Today, the name of the region is synonymous with the finest of all sparkling wines, and wine-making traditions of Champagne have become role models for sparkling wine producers, worldwide. Surprisingly, the region of Champagne is now responsible for only one bottle in 12 of all sparkling wine produced. Styles of champagne range in sweetness ranging from an extra brut or brut 0, to the basic brut to demi sec to doux; some houses produce single vintage champagnes and others produce non-vintage (or incorporate wines/grapes of multiple vintages), often to preserve a specific taste; combinations of grape varietals; and colors, including a rosé. There are several sub-appellations, including the Valley of the Marnes river running from Épernay west, Massif de Saint-Thierry north and west of Rheims, Valley of the Ardre, the Mountains of Rheims (between Rheims and Épernay), Côte des Blancs, Côte de Sézanne, and Côte des Bar in the South. Champagne wine only uses three grape varietals (cépages): Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier.ChampagneThe vineyards of Champagne on weinlagen-info |
