Tasting notes

Aromas of peach, orange zest, white flowers and freshly baked bread introduce the brilliant 2016 Extra-Brut Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru Oiry La Cocluette, a medium to full-bodied, satiny and seamless Champagne that's pure, racy and saline, with chalky structure and a long, resonant finish. This north-facing plot, planted in 1925, always delivers one of the more electric wines in the range, and that's certainly the case this year.

About this sparkling wine

Suenen's La Cocluette represents the pinnacle of Champagne craftsmanship from the Grand Cru village of Oiry. This Blanc de Blancs is crafted exclusively from Chardonnay, the signature grape of the region's chalky terroir, delivering a wine of elegance and precision. The Extra Brut dosage allows the pure expression of the fruit and minerality to shine, creating a racy, refined sparkling wine with citrus and stone fruit character balanced by the region's distinctive chalky minerality.

The Champagne blend philosophy at Suenen emphasizes quality over quantity, with meticulous attention to vineyard selection and traditional méthode Champenoise production. Oiry's limestone-rich soils impart complexity and structure, making this Champagne a sophisticated choice for discerning palates. At 12% ABV, it offers approachability without compromising depth.

La Cocluette pairs beautifully with shellfish, crab, and lobster, while its crisp acidity complements fresh salads, citrus-based dishes, and sushi. It's equally at home with goat cheese, parmesan, and delicate tapas, ideal for refined entertaining aboard yachts, in mountain chalets, or at villa gatherings.
