This Non-Vintage Rosé Champagne is an example of fine craftsmanship. It reveals the finesse and elegance of perfectly preserved Pinot Noirs which form the core of this genuine blend, made exclusively from first press wines. The Red Les Riceys wines give overall structure to the wine whilst the Chardonnays from Chouilly and Vitry allow the Pinots to take center stage whilst imparting incomparable freshness.
92 Jeb Dunnuck Based on the 2020 vintage, the NV Champagne Brut Rose is a blended style with 47% Chardonnay, 20% Meunier, and the rest Pinot Noir, 9% of which is red wine coming from Les Riceys. From 2020 onward the house began blocking malolactic fermentation on the Meunier to retain more complexity. This rose pours a bright pink hue and opens to delicate reductive and smoky aromas lifting from the glass, including loads of orange peel citrus, framboise, and fresh flowers. Medium-bodied and energetic, it has an excellent pithy structure and notes of wet stone as well as snappy lift through the finish. A very nice, food-friendly rosé, it will continue to improve over the coming 10-12 years.
92 Wine Spectator Delivers a firm spine of acidity that's well-integrated with the plush texture and finely woven flavors of macerated cherry, licorice, mandarin orange peel and mineral. Shows good intensity in a harmonious frame, with delicate spice and herb notes on the chalky finish. Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier.
91 Wine & Spirits This wine gains its light copper-pink color from red pinot noir grown in Les Riceys. The red fruit has a generous, honeyed sweetness, captured in a pretty rosé with an elegant, tea-like smokiness that lasts.
91 Wine Enthusiast Aged on the lees for 18 months, this Champagne is still vibrant and full of young, bright fruits. Its acidity and texture are bright and need to soften
90 James Suckling A blood orange-colored Champagne with aromas of strawberries, dried cherries, pomelo zest and some walnut. Bright and fresh with fine bubbles, crisp acidity and a tight finish. Dry feel. Drink now.
