Item # 24118 750mL

The Coulon family started making wine in Vrigny in 1806. A full, rich vintage Champagne with gorgeous, complex aromas thanks to extended lees aging before disgorgement. Friendly, ripe apple notes permit appreciation now - especially over a first course of fish, light soups and poultry, but will be fine if kept many years in the cellar.

Pinot Noir

The Burgundy region of northeastern France is the historic home of the Pinot Noir grape, and is the source of the world’s greatest examples. Here one finds renditions of Pinot Noir that deliver power with finesse and grace, wines that have unimaginable depth of flavor, yet are perfectly balanced and ephemeral in the mouth - in short, wines that deliver all that Pinot Noir has to offer.

Champagne

Champagne is finally getting the recognition it deserves as a brilliant food wine. For consistency and quality, turn to the big Champagne brands and you’ll never go wrong.

These winemakers control every aspect of grape cultivation and vinification, from the vine to the finished bottle, which is...
