Pommery
Louise Pommery, mother of Louis and Louise, lost her husband suddenly in 1858. With no little courage, she took over the business affairs he had bequeathed to her. She was a lively and intelligent woman and brought the Champagne House success and glory by inventing the Pommery brand image thanks to public relations operations carried out at the Estate. In 1874, she made a huge step forward by creating the first brut champagne to enjoy genuine commercial success : Pommery Brut Nature. The creation of this Champagne, which contained less sugar than was usual for Champagne at the time, was the ambitious objective which Louise Pommery and her team had set themselves. In addition to the innovation of selling a wine which went against the grain of contemporary practice, it was also a very difficult wine to produce because sugar was used to mask some of the more evolved characteristics of Champagne wine. Therefore reducing the dosage meant having to improve the quality of the base wine so that the final result was not too aggressive on the palate. Madame Louise Pommery : a woman ahead of her time.

Pommery Cuvée Louise 1999She reveals her natural perfumes, making it perfectly clear that there’s no need to add any others since they are quite capable of delivering a truly outstanding aromatic bouquet. We are in the presence of a rare complexity. Louise generously offers up to us everything she embodies without restraint but with great class. Numerous aromas are unleashed in various registers ranging from mature red berries, over notes of beeswax and freshly dried acacia to flourishes of quince pate, all of them set off by a flourish of minerality that imbues this Louise with generosity and roundness. On the palate, the overall sensation is limpid, clear and without artifice. She is there - for us, only for us, loving and loved, extremely gentle, encompassing the freshness and finesse of silk enhanced by the reassuring warmth of velvet. A Louise without any hint of harshness bearing all the class and distinction of her elders because the blood that flows in her veins is indeed the blood lovingly bestowed on her one day by Madame Louise Pommery. |
