The Story

Cuvée Louise was created in 1979, but as Madame Pommery would have demanded, this prestige cuvee is a product of the very best plots in the Pommery vineyards, reserved specifically for it. In the tradition of Pommery Nature 1874, Cuvée Louise is the only special cuvee with so little sugar.

Thus the wine naturally expresses its exceptional purity. Behind this apparent simplicity are unique processes at each stage of its elaboration that ensu...

Vintage 1995

A welcome relief after some difficult years in the region. Quantity-wise, it was the seventh high-cropping year in a row. But, in 1995, the quality also excelled, and particularly so for Chardonnay. There were significant frost damages during the spring and the warm but wet weather in the summer ignited mildew and rot problems. The vines cropped heavily and rigorous vineyard work and selection during harvest led to best results. Harvest commen...

Written Notes

Pommery Louise 1995 (jeroboam) –

In immaculate condition as it had come from the House’s cellars, as had all these. What a wine. From three Grand Cru villages – Ay, Avize, and Cramant – it was superb. A fresh salad style with notes of rock melon. Elegant, ethereal, lingering, and superbly balanced. For me, 97.

Bottle is in a excellent condition, normal size and with by the neck level. This fine example displays yellow colour, and looking healthy and youthful. The bouquet is intense, refined and generous. The taste is focused, fruity, perfumed, elegant, and medium-bodied, with balanced, well-structured, good texture and concentrated structure. It has lots of dried-fruit, honey, vanilla, tropical fruits, mineral and white fruits flavours. The ending was medium, gentle, lingering and flavorful. This wine was transparent and fine. I paid around 100-200€ a bottle. It is at its best 2020-2030 and decant at least 15min before tasting.. Good value for money.
