Pommery Cuvée Louise 2006 375ml

Created in homage to Louise Pommery, daughter of Madame Pommery, Cuvée Louise is a wine of exceptional and absolute purity which expresses the quintessence of the know‐how of the Maison Pommery.

Cuvée Louise finds its origin within three grands crus; Avize, Cramant and Aÿ - true gems of the Champagne region. The 2006 vintage, expresses all its lightness and delicacy with subtle minerality. The harmony is perfect. Aromas of white flowers are wonderfully associated with hints of prunes and white peaches, creating a silky and fine effect. It embraces the palate with grace and elegance, the finale is long and tense. 

Its colour of a nice tender pale yellow which illuminates with great delight the glass, highlights its strength of bubbles ascending without discontinuity up to the surface of the wine to spread and be replaced by others even finer ones. On the nose, the wine then expresses, without any detour and without any equivocation, all its lightness and delicacy making appear a subtle minerality of the aromas of white flowers, yeasts but also white fleshed fruit one would like to crunch.

Without further ado, we are driven by a longing to make it touch the palate, where great enthusiasm arises, since the wine deploys a silky and fine effect. It embraces the palate with grace and elegance. The purity perceived on the nose finds all its expression in the mouth. Everything is adjusted with the precision of a millimetre, harmony is perfect, the floral freshness is wonderfully associated with all these hints of prunes and white peaches. The finale is long and tense and provides the palate with an elegance which is worthy of the first name given to it: Louise. - Thierry Gasco, Œnologist and Winemaker of Maison Pommery
