Nakada-Park, Lou Dumont, Harmonie en Seine - Champagne Brut Nature - 1 Bottle (0.75L)

History of Champagne Nakada-Park

The estate's story begins with a dream born more than twenty-five years ago. A sommelier and oenologist originally from Okayama, Japan, Koji Nakada left his native island in 1996 to settle in Burgundy and study oenology in Beaune. It was in Dijon that he met Jae Hwa Park, his future wife from Korea. Together, in 2000 they founded Maison Lou Dumont in Gevrey-Chambertin, an artisanal estate that bridges the gap between Burgundy and Asia. But very early on, during a formative internship, Koji nurtured another passion: one day crafting his own champagne.
Harmonie en Seine, Brut Nature: this cuvée celebrates the plots of the Seine valley, around Neuville-sur-Seine and the Hermitage vineyard that enriched the estate in 2022. Crafted from Pinot Noir in the purest house spirit, it is vinified and aged in Burgundian oak barrels, then given a lengthy élevage on lees before disgorgement without dosage. True to its name, it seeks harmony and balance: a deep, restrained and coherent champagne, with a calm and precise voice, that tells the story of the Côte des Bar with artisanal and deeply personal sensitivity. A beautiful single-vineyard expression to discover in order to fully grasp the finesse of the Kimmeridgian terroir.
