Rosé Brut

"A bright pink color, the NV Champagne 1er Cru Brut Rosé is composed of 40% Pinot Noir (15% of which is vin rouge), 30% Chardonnay, and 30% Meunier, with 88% from the 2021 vintage and the rest from 2020, all raised without the use of oak. The wine is expressive on opening, with a fruity profile revealing ripe notes of nectarine, crushed berries, candied flowers, and wet stone. Medium-bodied and pithy, it has an orange rind texture and a fluffy mousse. It gets a good deal of structure from the Pinot Noir and is more than a simple quaffer, with the ability to carry through a meal from start to finish. Drink it over the next 4-5 years. 6 grams per liter of dosage."

"The NV Brut Ros, (45% Pinot Noir, 30% Meunier, 25% Chardonnay) is a rich, deeply-colored Champagne to enjoy at the dinner table. Succulent red cherry, plum, blood orange, cinnamon and dried flowers fill out its layers. Despite its obvious richness, this remains light on its feet and supremely elegant. What a delight. Dosage is 6-8 grams per liter. Disgorged: March, 2022."
