The history of the Eric Collinet house is a family story centered on care for the vineyards, an artisanal curiosity, and a rigorous work ethic: a choice to make the bottle a meeting point between memory and the present, between tradition and method, offering a product recognizable for its polished balance and clean taste. The production philosophy is based on careful vineyard management, targeted harvesting, controlled fermentation, and calibrated dosage that preserves the purity of the base wines: a second fermentation in the bottle that makes the mousse creamy and the perlage fine, with vibrant freshness and discreet minerality. The distinctive elements of Cuvee Harmonie lie in its aromatic signature, balancing the sweetness of citrus fruits with touches of bread crust and a light floral note, supported by a structure that avoids the gustatory vulgarity typical of more pervasive sparkling wines; it is a wine capable of being contemporary without sacrificing depth, thanks to a blending choice that prioritizes both delicacy and the ability to age in the bottle. In the producer's range, this cuvée serves as an accessible yet far-from-ordinary reference, ideal for occasions where understated elegance takes center stage and where the bottle becomes an opportunity for conversation, not merely celebration; it pairs well with dishes ranging from light appetizers to fish and fresh cheeses, offering the palate a nuanced and refined experience. In closing, Eric Collinet, with Cuvee Harmonie Brut NV, presents an interpretation of Champagne that embodies the STELT spirit: understated, refined, reliable, and able to accompany the table with a discreet yet decisive presence.\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Eric Collinet","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57658578075973,"sku":"ERICOL-CUVHARBRU-CHA-NV-075","price":46.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1000\/7376\/7237\/files\/Eric-Collinet-Cuvee-Harmonie-Brut-NV-075l.jpg?v=1788875039"},{"product_id":"eric-collinet-cuvee-temporis-extra-brut-nv-075","title":"Eric Collinet Cuvee Temporis Extra Brut NV 0,75l","description":"\u003cdiv\u003eEric Collinet Cuvee Temporis Extra Brut NV 0,75l is a sparkling wine that presents itself as the expression of a small artisan producer capable of combining technical rigor, attentive craftsmanship, and a profound connection with the land, designed to accompany discreet moments of pleasure and to tell the story of the light of a carefully tended vineyard.
