Pommery Cuvee Louise 2002

When Madame Pommery discovered she was pregnant at the age of thirty-eight, her retired husband decided to go back into business. At the time, the Champagne industry was booming, so he purchased Narcisso Greno's business and founded Champagne Pommery. When he passed away less than two years later, Madame Pommery took over the reins and transformed this small estate into a Grande Marque. She perhaps most famously developed the first brut champagne in 1874. Pommery Nature seduced the English market and paved the way for the future of Champagne.

Despite numerous takeovers and the loss of family ownership, long-time Cellar Master Thierry Gasco remained with the House, ensuring Pommery's high-quality production remained unaffected. The House has a wide range and their champagnes offer a reductive, fresh, pure and fruity style. Green values and sustainability are at the heart of Gasco's winemaking and Champagne Pommery were the first wine estate in the world to be granted environmental management certification. Pommery have also recently started producing sparkling wine in England, alongside Hattingley Valley.
