Description
// Base year 2020
85% Meunier and 15% Pinot Noir
5 months aging on lees (6g/L dosage)
"This champagne is an assemblage of parcels, including Bas-Bauchets, Russelets-mal-tournés, La Fontaine du Curé, Margaines, Sente-Chatillon, Petites Loges, Chenillonnes, Vieilleries, Cerisière, and Clos des Goulots. It was spontaneously fermented in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks. 8% of still Pinot Noir wine was added. It underwent malolactic fermentation in stainless and aged there for 5 months. The wine was left on lees for at least 20 months before tirage. Expect smoothness and creaminess from extended time on lees and aging, and especially a wicked bite from zesty citrus notes, a sherbert tang, and crackling acidity racing across the palate. A real Champagne drinkers' Champagne." - Notes from the Estate
"This harmonious rosé Champagne shows lovely interplay between the vivid acidity and finely detailed mousse. The mouthwatering, satiny frame carries an enticing range of ripe red currant and raspberry fruit, peach skin and salted Marcona almond. Chalky finish. Drink now through to 2029." - Wine Spectator
"The NV Brut Rosé is a powerful, vinous Champagne. There's certainly a ton to like. Bright red cherry fruit, chalk, mint, white pepper and orange peel fill out its layers, lifted by bright acids that wrap it all together. This Meunier-driven Rosé is particularly impressive in the 2020 base edition." - Antonio Galloni, Vinous
