Champagne Roger Coulon

Champagne Roger Coulon is one of the most exciting names in the world of grower Champagne, producing wines of finesse, precision, and deep terroir expression. Based in Vrigny, in the Montagne de Reims, the estate has been run by the Coulon family for eight generations, with Eric and Isabelle Coulon now leading the domaine into a new era of organic viticulture and artisanal winemaking.

The estate’s 10 hectares of Premier Cru vineyards are spread across Vrigny, Coulommes-la-Montagne, and Villers-Allerand, planted to Pinot Meunier, Pinot Noir, and Chardonnay. Old vines, low yields, and meticulous vineyard care ensure fruit of outstanding quality. In the cellar, Roger Coulon embraces a philosophy of minimal intervention, fermenting in oak and stainless steel, with long lees aging to bring complexity and texture.

The result is a range of Champagnes that are elegant, vibrant, and gastronomic, often with a focus on single-village and single-plot expressions. Signature cuvées such as Heri-Hodie, L’Hommée, and Esprit de Vrigny showcase the richness and purity of Montagne de Reims terroirs. These are wines that attract Michelin-starred restaurants, collectors, and Champagne connoisseurs alike.

How to keep your wine?

Wine Conservation

For long-term wine storage, the key is consistency. A stable temperature in the range of 50–59°F (10–15°C) allows wine to age gracefully, protecting delicate aromas and preserving structure. Temperatures higher than 68°F (20°C) accelerate aging and risk oxidation, while fluctuations cause the liquid and cork to expand and contract, which can compromise the seal and let in oxygen.

By contrast, standard kitchen refrigerators are designed for food preservation, not wine. They’re usually kept too cold (around 35–40°F / 1–4°C) and far too dry, which can dry out corks and spoil long-term storage. However, a fridge is perfectly fine for short-term chilling — for example, bringing a white or sparkling down to serving temperature for the evening.

Best practice: Use a dedicated wine cooler or cellar for long-term storage, and only rely on a household fridge for temporary chilling before service.

wine preservation system like Coravin works by inserting a thin, hollow needle through the cork, allowing you to pour wine without pulling the cork out. As wine is extracted, argon gas (an inert gas that won’t react with wine) is injected into the bottle to replace the liquid and protect the remaining wine from oxidation.

This makes Coravin ideal if you want to enjoy a glass or two from a fine bottle over several weeks (or even months) without worrying about spoilage. It’s especially valuable for collectors, restaurants, or anyone wanting to explore wines by the glass without committing to the entire bottle.

Quick rule of thumb:

  • Short-term (a few days): Use vacuum stoppers or inert gas sprays.
  • Long-term (weeks to months): Use a system like Coravin.

Not all wines are meant to age. While a handful of fine wines can develop beautifully for decades in the cellar, the majority are crafted to be enjoyed within just a few years of release.

The ideal aging potential depends on the wine’s structure:

  • Acidity acts as a preservative, helping wines (especially whites) stay fresh over time.
  • Tannins give red wines backbone and allow them to soften and evolve with age.
  • Sugar & alcohol also contribute to stability, which is why fortified and sweet wines often last longer.

Store bottles with natural corks on their side to keep the cork moist and expanded. A dry cork can shrink, allowing oxygen to seep in and spoil the wine. For wines with screw caps or synthetic corks, the storage position does not matter.

The optimal humidity range is 50–80%, with some experts citing 70% as ideal. Low humidity can cause corks to dry out, while excessively high humidity can damage the labels and promote mold, though it will not affect the sealed wine.
