Champagne Extra Brut
Cuvée du Goulté Magnum 2008

The Champagne Cuvée du Goulté by Marie-Noëlle Ledru is a Blanc de Noirs made from 100% Pinot Noir, sourced from vineyards in Ambonnay, a Grand Cru village in the Montagne de Reims. The parcels, planted with 30–40-year-old vines, are farmed with deliberately low yields and a rigorous, artisanal approach that reflects the philosophy of Marie-Noëlle Ledru, known as “Madame Pinot Noir” for her unique ability to express with precision, finesse, and depth the true essence of this emblematic grape variety. Produced only in the most favorable vintages, Cuvée du Goulté is vinified in stainless steel, a choice that enhances purity and balance without compromising complexity and depth.

This Magnum edition, Millésime 2008, comes from a vintage widely regarded as one of the greatest of the new millennium in Champagne, marked by a cool, dry, and luminous end of season that allowed for slow and complete ripening. The wines are defined by high acidity, precision, and structure, with a distinctly vertical profile and remarkable aging potential. Released in limited quantities by the Domaine in 2025, this cuvée represents an exceptional release: a recently disgorged version that has benefited from over 15 years on the lees, developing depth, maturity, and a rare aromatic complexity. The minimal dosage defines an expression of absolute transparency and faithful terroir expression.

On the palate, Cuvée du Goulté 2008 reveals great depth and elegance, with a complex bouquet of ripe citrus, candied orange peel, dried fruit, and delicate spicy notes, complemented by hints of brioche and mineral nuances. It stands out for its tension and precision, with a solid yet perfectly integrated structure supported by vibrant freshness that drives the wine forward. The finish is long and layered, with a refined saline touch that confirms its balance, maturity, and outstanding aging potential.
