The brand of the Centre Vinicole cooperative, Champagne Nicolas Feuillatte is a surprising project, a super cooperative that brings together the largest number of winegrowers in Champagne belonging to 82 local cooperatives for a total of 5,000 suppliers accounting for 2,250 hectares of vineyards. A blend of the sharp and taut Pinot Noir of Montagne de Reims with its northern exposure (Verzy and Verzenay) with the structured bolder one of the south (Bouzy and Ambonnay) and Aÿ. This is both a brilliant and intense vintage with notes of white cherry, apricot and candied ginger, marjoram, fresh figs and coated peanuts on a barley background. The mouthfeel is energetic, thick and sumptuous like a vintage damask cloth.
