Tasting by William Kelley: "This rosé champagne is very pretty, unfolding in the glass with a delicate bouquet of tangerine and freshly baked bread mixed with subtle notes of dried fruit, cherry pit and spice. Quite powerful, elegantly vinous and structured, it's concentrated yet understated, with a seamless profile that's driven by a pearly mousse, concluding with a sapid finish."
THE DOMAIN TELLS YOU ABOUT IT:
- The cuvée : It is vinified in small barrels of 2 to 8 wines, for the Chardonnay, for 6 months where it was stirred regularly in order to give it this roundness and elegance which characterize it. The Pinot Noir was kept for 1 year in barrels of 5 wines, which reinforces its structure.
