The Comtes de Champagne Rosé is made of 30% Chardonnay Grands Crus from the most prestigious Côte des Blancs terroirs combined with 70% Pinot Noir sourced from the Montagne de Reims Grands Crus of which 12% is enhanced with red wine from Bouzy Pinots, whose somewhat long pre-fermentation maceration ensures a superb tannic structure with fruit-forward aromas of red and black berries.Â
This 2008 vintage is cloaked in an elegantly coloured robe of bright salmon pink. A hint of copper reflections highlight the fine, creamy bubbles in this exceptional cuvee. The nose is simultaneously indulgent and fresh, evoking aromas of raspberry, black cherry, then lightly stewed peaches and pears, all of which is further elevated by subtle scents of menthol.Â
