Coutier has farmed the grand cru slopes of Ambonnay since 1619, and Antoine Coutier — fifth generation — is arguably the premier grower of Chardonnay in a village better known for Pinot Noir. His grandfather planted Chardonnay here in 1948, unheard of at the time; today that decision is celebrated, and the estate's nine hectares are in organic conversion since 2019. Forty separate plots, average vine age 38 years, all of them south-facing Ambonnay Grand Cru.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Extra Brut Rosé is built on a base of 2022 — Champagne's \"solar\" vintage, warm and dry through summer, the healthiest fruit the region had seen in fifteen years. Assemblage method: still red Pinot Noir is blended with Chardonnay to build color and depth without bleeding from maceration. At Extra Brut dosage (0–6 g\/L), the Ambonnay mineral character is the final word.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003chr style=\"margin: 0;\"\u003e\u003cp\u003ePAIRINGS :\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: right;\"\u003eOysters on the half shell\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003echalk-driven acidity mirrors brine; low dosage keeps the pairing clean\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: right;\"\u003eSmoked salmon with crème fraîche\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ebrioche in both; the acidity cuts the richness cleanly\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: right;\"\u003eCharcuterie and aged Comté\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ered fruit on the palate plays off cured pork; Comté amplifies the nutty brioche note\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Polaner Selections","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":62805173633183,"sku":"8513","price":59.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0232\/3203\/files\/IMG-1141.jpg?v=1780363000","url":"https:\/\/eastsidecellars.com\/products\/r-h-coutier-extra-brut-rose-nv-750ml","provider":"Eastside Cellars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
