Cumières village. Years ago, our forefathers used to speak of "river wines", nourished by the terroirs of the Marne where the Pinots grow spirited and pure. The outstanding quality of these grapes as well as their dense juices and the generous, round character of the wines they produce have always made for distinctive champagnes. When bathed in the summer heat, some of these terroirs' cold clay soils express their character with strength and freshness, particularly in warmer years.
2009 was a continental and sunny year. These optimal conditions have permitted to reach a remarkable grape ripeness, and so to elaborate a dense, fruity and delicious Brut Nature.
All of the grapes from the various parcels were harvested on the same day - a "fruit day" on the lunar calendar. They were then pressed together, all at once, a technique used by our forefathers. The structure of the Pinot Noir, the ripeness of the Meunier and the floral character and lively acidity of the Chardonnay come together in a single, harmonious movement.
Brut Nature 2009 is first and foremost a wine, and then a champagne. It is impulsive and bright with a pleasant bitterness on the attack, delicate beads of mousse and a long, lingering finish.
