j m goulard la charme brut nv

damien goulard is a young talented winemaker who we have not finished hearing about. he is part of a family where viticulture has been an important part of the family since 1978. the house was founded by jean-marie and martine goulard that year. damien inherited the passion for wine and vines and took over the estate in 2012 with the desire to perpetuate the family traditions but also to express all the richness of the massif de saint-thierry. indeed, this terroir benefits from both a micro-climate favorable to the development of the vine but also a mosaic of soils with a sandy-clay and clay-limestone component. this makes the soils draining and capable of absorbing all the trace elements that the vine needs and thus of producing round and sustained wines with a vivacity proper to the massif de saint- thierry. damien, who considers his 8 hectares of vineyards as a garden where each piece of land deserves special attention, favors a reasoned agriculture and has just undertaken a conversion of his vineyard to organic farming. j m goulard la charme brut nv has beautiful gold in the glass. effervesce on the initial. the nose is fresh bread and apples. the mouthfeel is full and creamy with the effervesce quite noticeable. the flavor is almost like a tart cider with bread notes. honey and maybe even a bit of baking spice on the finish. love this stuff.
