Coutier Tradition Brut is a generous and characterful Champagne produced from estate-grown fruit in the historic Grand Cru village of \u003cstrong\u003eAmbonnay\u003c\/strong\u003e. The blend combines the depth and structure of Pinot Noir with a meaningful proportion of Chardonnay, bringing brightness, lift and mineral freshness to the finished wine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe base-2021 release opens with aromas of ripe orchard fruit, tangerine oil, honeycomb, mint and freshly baked pastry. The palate is medium to full-bodied, with a soft, pillowy mousse and a fleshy core of fruit balanced by tangy acidity. Notes of tart lemon, lime, sourdough and rhubarb add complexity, while Ambonnay’s limestone-rich soils provide freshness and definition through the finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eRich yet energetic, this is a classically styled Grand Cru Champagne with enough depth for the table and enough freshness to enjoy as an aperitif.
