Description
 
Champagne R. H. Coutier is located in the grand cru village of Ambonnay, one of the top wine-producing towns on the Montagne de Reims. The Coutier family has been in the village of Ambonnay since 1619, with the current head of the family estate René Coutier. The Coutiers own nine hectares of vineyards in Ambonnay, and interestingly, although Ambonnay is generally regarded as pinot noir country, the Coutiers’ vineyards are planted with one-third chardonnay and two-thirds pinot noir. In fact, in 1946 René Coutier’s father was the first vigneron in Ambonnay to plant chardonnay in the village, which has done well since then and is now as highly regarded as the pinot noir from this grand cru village. The vineyards on the Montagne de Reims shift exposure as one arrives in the village of Ambonnay, facing due south and producing a rather warmer microclimate for the grapes.

100% Pinot Noir grapes from the same-name Lieu-Dit, planted in 1969 by René Coutier, located on the outskirts of the Grand-Cru village of Ambonnay. Harvest 2017 with ageing in ceramic amphora and over 5 years on its lees before reaching the final dosage of just 1.5 g/l - making it an Extra Brut.
