Cossy Patrem Extra Brut Montagne de Reims 2006

Cossy Patrem is all about precision, care, and letting the vineyard speak for itself. Nestled in the Montagne de Reims, their Extra Brut cuvées are made with restraint and a deep respect for terroir. Minimal dosage lets the chalky soils, crisp acidity, and layered flavors shine, resulting in Champagne that feels both refined and vibrant.

The 2006 vintage is a blend of 33% Chardonnay, 33% Pinot Noir, and 34% Meunier. A careful fermentation, partly in barrel, partly in stainless steel, preserves freshness, while extended sur lie aging builds texture, richness, and complexity. Over 17 years of age have transformed this wine into something magical—a Champagne that balances maturity with a lively, celebratory spirit.

In the glass, this vintage dazzles. A fine, persistent mousse carries aromas of baked apple, toasted almond, and subtle brioche. The palate is bright and precise, layered with citrus peel, white stone fruit, and whispering floral notes. Vibrant acidity balances the richness, leading to a long, chalky, and utterly satisfying finish. This is Champagne that begs to be shared—and savored. Whether it’s a milestone, a quiet celebration, or simply a moment worth honoring, the 2006 Cossy Patrem Extra Brut proves that some things get better with time.
