January 28, 2023 - 100% Pinot Noir
from the 'flower' and 'fruit' plots of the 3.36 ha monopole lieu-dit
Largillier of Ville sur Arce in Côte de Bar, south of Troyes (Aube),
with poor marly Kimmeridgian (clay-limestone) soil quite similar to
those in Chablis.
Sole varietal of Pinot Noir with vines of age 35-45 yrs meticulously cultivated.
Manual harvest and sorted.
The two plots of single vintage vinified separately and assembled
in April-May for second fermentation. Malolactic completed.
Aged 29 months on lees, plus 7 months in bottle.
Dosage: Brut
12% Abv. ~10,000 bottles/yr
Background: The Coessens family has been sole proprietor of the
3.36 ha lieu-dit L'Agillier for five generations. Inherited in 2006 by
Jérôme Coessens who launched the brand Champagne Coessens.
Proprietors: Jérôme and Valerie Coessens
A(ccuray)=2: Pale crystalline lemon. Fragrant with minuscule perlage.
B(alance)=3: Intense fruit with vibrant structure.
C(omplexity)=2: Ripe tree fruits, white flowers, licorice, mineral.
