Nicolas Maillart — Les Couzy 2019

Les Couzy 2019

Nicolas Maillart | Extra Brut | Vintage 2019

Two hungry kids, three different requests – and in the end, a combo that actually seems quite harmonious:

Grilled meatballs with spicy ajvar – juicy, lightly smoky Mashed potatoes with butter & nutmeg – warm, soft, mild Greek salad – feta, cucumber, tomato, olives, a bit of lemon

Nothing fancy. But just right. And with it? A bottle that's been waiting for a long time – quietly, in the cooler, as if made for exactly this moment:

– Les Couzy 2019

Tasting Notes

Vibrant acidity with green-spicy freshness and a lightly saline texture. Wild, but in an elegant way – a rare Petit Meslier from a single vineyard.
