The sparkling wines of Champagne have been revered by wine drinkers for hundreds of years, and even today they maintain their reputation for excellence of flavor and character, and are consistently associated with quality, decadence, and a cause for celebration. Their unique characteristics are partly due to the careful blending of a small number of selected grape varietals, most commonly Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. These grapes, blended in fairly equal quantities, give the wines of Champagne their wonderful flavors and aromas, with the Pinot Noir offering length and backbone, and the Chardonnay varietal giving its acidity and dry, biscuity nature. It isn't unusual to sometimes see Champagne labeled as 'blanc de blanc', meaning it is made using only Chardonnay varietal grapes, or 'blanc de noir', which is made solely with Pinot Noir.
France, often regarded as the heart of the wine world, boasts a rich history, diverse terroirs, and a captivating variety of grape varietals. From the renowned vineyards of Bordeaux to the picturesque landscapes of Burgundy, France offers a wine lover’s dream journey. Whether you’re new to the world of wine or a seasoned enthusiast looking […]
The beautiful rolling hillsides of the Champagne region of France have, for hundreds of years, been producing many of the world's most famous wines. The sparkling white wines to come out of Champagne's prestigious wineries have conquered the world, and are drank in celebration across the globe. The vast majority of the region is under vine, and grows predominantly Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grape varietals, which are usually blended together by master wine-makers in order to make their recognizable and widely loved produce. The north-easterly region of Champagne has a relatively cool climate, and quite a lot of rainfall, making it far from ideal for ripening grapes. However, the presence of heavily forested areas in the region helps maintain a balanced temperature, and the generations of expertise the wineries hold clearly produces excellent results in spite of the climatic problems.

An 80/20 split between chardonnay and pinot noir, this has an ethereal spicy thread, sweet citrus, plus some redder fruits too; floral and fragrant, very pretty. The palate's boldly flavored, precisely cut and compressed with intense minerally acidity. The lemon and nougat flavors carry deep and the finish has superb focus. Drink from 2018.

The 2007 Coeur de Cuvée is drinking very well, opening in the glass with a lovely bouquet of crisp green apples, beeswax and citrus oil, complemented by spicy top notes of cinnamon and ginger. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, vinous and incisive, with a textural attack that segues into a tangy, acid-driven core and a mouthwatering, saline finish, set off by an ultra-fine pinpoint mousse. While this Champagne's energy and integration make it a lovely drink today, it will reward more than a decade's bottle age.

Vilmart's 2007 Coeur de Cuvée is showing beautifully today. A few years in bottle has done wonders to bring out the wine's aromatic and flavor intensity. Orchard fruit, mint and wild flowers all open up nicely in the glass. Soft, open-knit and inviting, the 2007 is at a real peak of expression today. The first signs of maturity are just starting to show. For that reason, I would prefer to drink the 2007 over the next 7-10 years, give or take.

A cool and highly restrained nose features plenty of citrus and petrol characters to the yeasty apple, pear and acacia blossom aromas. As is usually the case with all of the Vilmart cuvées, the mousse is really quite fine and the middle weight flavors possess outstanding intensity before culminating in a bone dry finish that flirts with austerity but doesn't quite move over the edge. For my taste this is still very much on the way up and while it could be drunk now, I would suggest holding it for another 3 to 5 years so that more overall depth can develop.
