93 James Suckling A bright, fruity rosé with peaches and light strawberries. Tangerines, too. Medium-bodied with a creamy texture. This is a blended wine with only 7% red wines. Pretty red fruit with the same freshness as the normal black label. Very fresh and vivid. Four years on the lees. Drink now.
91 Wine Enthusiast A ripe style of rosé Champagne, this has red fruits in profusion balanced by a crisp, tight acidity. The wine’s texture supports the touch of toast and the mature acidity.
91 Jeb Dunnuck The NV Champagne Le Rosé is also based on the 2016 vintage, with the addition of 30% reserve wine and 7% still red wine. It has a pale salmon hue, with delicate and fruity aromatics of strawberry, orchard fruit, and soft floral perfume. The palate has an elegant but energetic mousse, with a rounded mid-palate of ripe peach, raspberry, and a fresh, cleansing finish. These wines are approachable in style and cast a large net. Best after 2022.
95 The Somm Journal On the entry of this blend of 53% Pinot Noir, 32% Chardonnay, and 15% Pinot Meunier, notes of freshly squeezed tangerine dance with apricot. Precious bubbles feel lighter than air beneath a veil of spearmint, rose petal, and candied ginger.
