Vilmart et Cie Coeur de Cuvée Brut Vintage 2014 Champagne 75cl

Review this product

Vilmart Coeur de Cuvée 2014 is an extraordinary cuvée made from 60-year-old vines planted in Rilly-la-Montagne. The name is derived from the fact that only the heart of the cuvée is used, meaning that only the finest portion of juice is used, resulting in a very refined fruit expression. Winemaking and maturation is carried out in oak casks, and the bottled champagne is then aged on lees for almost 6 years. The result is champagne of profound depth, with great concentration and richness. It is most certainly a complex, gastronomic style of champagne.

In an effort to farm sustainably and promote biodiversity, this respected grower excludes the use of chemical fertiliser, herbicides, and insecticides in the vineyard.

The winter provided ample rainfall, and late frosts were absent this vintage. However, despite this healthy start to growing season, summer turned out to be rather wet. Mercifully, the vintage was saved by a late burst of dry, sunny weather in September which encouraged ripening. The results of the vintage are mixed, but capable growers did well, and many of the wines show an expressive fruit character that make them great for early drinking; the best examples should have the ability to age well into the 2030s.
Aromas of white peach, lemon, apricot, dill and almond precede a palate rich in flavours of pastry and orange citrus. There is an exceptional depth of flavour on an expansive palate, with a chalky minerality underpinning the richness.
Perfect when enjoyed with crayfish and porcini mushrooms, scallops, or foie gras.
<p>The gentle use of oak is vital, the influence is subtle and found more in texture than flavour. The production of the estate is minscule and highly sort-after by collectors.</p>
