Vilmart et Cie, Champagne Coeur de Cuvee, 2004
The heart of the cuvee, literally. "Coeur de Cuvee" is drawn only from the middle of the first press, the finest, most delicate juice, which Vilmart ferments and ages in oak barriques to make this Chardonnay-led prestige bottling. Vilmart is one of the great grower estates of Rilly-la-Montagne, and their top wines age with a richness that has famously been mistaken for mature white Burgundy. Now two decades on, this 2004 has reached that stage: toasty, deep, and complex while the mineral tension underneath keeps it lifted and alive. A rare chance to drink a grower prestige cuvee at full maturity.
