Dominique Moreau’s Marie Courtin estate is a love letter to Champagne itself. Working a single contiguous parcel in Polisot at the southern tip of the Cote des Bar, she farms biodynamically pendulums and all and ferments with wild yeasts in both vin clair and the bottle, a rarity in the region. Every cuve is a single grape, single parcel, and single vintage. Rsonance is her 100% Pinot Noir bottling from the crest of the hill, where the Kimmeridgian limestone presses right up under thin topsoil. The result is a Champagne of joyous energy and transparency: yellow-citrus Pinot fruit (think Sunny D and baby clementines) ringing over crushed-oyster-shell minerality. Zero dosage; the 2022 base vintage stands on its own.
