The 2010 Domaine Les Monts Fournois Cote 1er Cru Champagne was a Merchant's Pick
"Irresistible" Show-Stopping Bubbles
December 06, 2024
If Fournois Champagne is written across the label, you know you're in for a special treat.
Oysters and caviar? Rotisserie chicken? Sushi? Grilled fish?
The list is endless.
One would typically expect to drink this stunning sparkler while wearing a black tie. But you don't need a special occasion to enjoy quality Champagne.
These gorgeous 1er Cru bubbles are a Blanc de Blancs, 100% Chardonnay from Vertus, the second largest village in Champagne known for its mineral-driven soil.
A terrific example of this vintage at its finest. Tangerine peel, pastry, white pepper and flowers all race across the palate. A Champagne of uncommon depth and nuance, the 2010 Cote is irresistible. Its also one of the very best wines I have tasted in this series of micro-negociant wines from the Bereche family. What a delight.” Vinous
We recently tasted this gorgeous Champagne, full of vibrant bubbles and fruit, a signature of fine Blanc de Blancs. It shows faint biscuit notes, which are nearly undetectable except for a hint on the finish (nice!).
Pear, green apple, saline, and stone fruit are center stage and take the most popular white grape, Chardonnay, to a new level.
It is incredibly food-friendly, as its acidity can cut through almost all food, leaving a splash of fruit on your palate.
If you love terrific culinary experiences, this wine should be on your shortlist.
- Great as a food pairing from sashimi, oysters, white fishes, Indian chicken Makhani, olive tapenade sauces, primavera, and endless options in every corner of your tablescape.
- The ultimate indulgence. This wine is luxurious and delicious.
- Perfect as a holiday gift.
This wine is typically sold out before the holiday season.
