Louis Brochet Rosé Millésime 2019

62% Pinot Noir, 33% Chardonnay, 5% red wine from 'Mont Benoit'From 3 plots: "Les Rosets" in Sacy for the Pinot Noir, "Les Vouagnes" in Ecueil for the Chardonnay and the famous terroir "Mont Benoit" in Villers aux Nœuds for the red wineDosage: 3g/lNicola OCT24: Nice fresh, balanced body, well-balanced, suitable as a food companion or just as such. Sophisticated, but not too complicated. Very balanced. Fabio OCT24: Serious rosé with nevertheless a lot of drinking flow, very good balance. Tilman OCT24: Well-structured rosé, has something dark, chocolate too, with a hint of strawberry, but little fruit overall, has something serious about it.Tasting from our colleagues at Sip Champagnes in London: THE rosé champagne that makes everyone rave. It starts with a beguiling nose: summer berries, raspberries, wild strawberries and fresh and almost floral. Then it explodes on the palate with a crisp attack, huge ripe summer fruits and berries in the mid palate before breaking out and becoming clean, refreshing and dry and then you just want to take sip after sip of this absolutely luscious yet delicate sparkling wine.

The Pinot Meunier vines in the plot "Moulin à Vent" are more than 60 years old. The wine is aged in used wooden barrels. Intense fruit, stimulating juiciness, nutty spice and a touch of fine cider characterize this exciting, compact and mineral white wine, which is neither fined nor filtered and receives only a minimal addition of sulfur.

René Geoffroy Les Chalmonts (Still Wine) Cumières Rouge 2019

100% Pinot Noir Terroir: Clay and lime, with fragments of flint. Selection of very early-ripening plots above Cumières Average age of the vines: 45 years Wine making: Harvested and rigorously sorted by hand. Maceration and winemaking in an open oak vat with immersed cap. Matured for 10 months in demi-muid casks and barrels before aging in stainless steel vats, in the cellar at a constant temperature. Malolactic fermentation in barrels; no fining, no filtering. Tasting: Colour: brilliant, deep red. The nose is typical of the Pinot Noirs of the Terroir of Cumieres with some morello cherry (griotte) coming through. In the mouth a smooth balance is formed between red fruits and silky, delicate tannins. Antonio Galloni Vintage 2012 – 93P: The 2012 Pinot Meunier is bold, punchy and vibrant. A rush of sweet red cherry, game, tobacco, licorice and earthy notes give this mid-weight red surprising nuance. The 2012 is remarkably fresh for a still red wine that is nearly ten years old. This nervy Cumières Pinot has so much character. I absolutely loved it. Daniela Dejnega 2022: Coteaux Champenois Rouge at its best. Geoffroy's Pinot Noir vines in the "Les Chalmonts" site are on average 45 years old. On the clay and limestone soils above Cumières, the grapes ripen early. They are strictly selected and fermented in open wooden vats, partly with the stems. The red wine is aged in barrels, without sulfur, fining or filtration. The bouquet is elegant and red berry, sweet and sour cherries, some tobacco and autumn leaves. Very fresh on the palate, silky, ripe tannins with fine grip, red-fruited again and a hint of cocoa. Needs time in the glass!

Lukas FEB23: In the nose ripe and spicy yellow fruit, some smokiness in the background and floral aromas reminiscent of chamomile and herbs. In the mouth, the herbal notes are in the foreground, along with some warm yellow fruit and a bit of ripe peach and apricot on the finish. Very juicy, acidity rather more present in the background.

Etienne Sandrin Beauregard 2019 - Bio

100% Pinot Noir Single vineyard Beauregard Biodynamic farming Spontaneous fermentation Dosage: 0g/l 2-3 years bottle aging Etienne describes the wine beautifully: "The whole description of the wine is contained in this name "Beauregard": A beautiful look is at once gentle, subtle, delicate, without frills, without mascara. In short, its natural beauty is sufficient unto itself. Beauregard has this in its genes and especially in its soil. We are on the first subsidence of the Upper Kimmeridgian, directly under the Portlandien, whose rock is found in the upper part of the plot. In other words, we are on "pebbles" with white clay and a not very deep soil. So the wine immediately becomes more discreet, fine and subtle. The Pinots Noirs of Beauregard then give a delicate fruit, like cherry or currant or even raspberry. Being on the north side, we also get a lot of freshness. In short, it is again a whole new flavor, in the range of "Parcellaires" of Sandrin champagnes. Nicola OKT23: For Sandrin's calm and reserved champagnes, relatively expressive with singing fruit, straight and mineral.

Oudiette Rosé d'Infusion Vendange 2019

98% Chardonnay 2% Meunier From the individual layers: "Les Gras d'Huile" - Chardonnay - south-east exposure"Les Cormonts" - Meunier - southern exposure Dosage: 1g/l Maxime: The Rosé d'Infusion started with a simple idea: to transfer the method of tea infusion to winemaking. After pressing, we wait for the Chardonnay juices to ferment and then we pick the most beautiful Meunier grapes from the “Les Cormonts” plot. The Meunier grapes are then carefully destemmed by hand to avoid damaging the seeds. Then we pour the Meunier grapes into the Chardonnay must. From then on, we control the infusion several times a day through blind tastings to assess the taste; the color intensity is irrelevant here. Once the perfect balance is reached, we take out the Meunier grapes with a net: the Rosé d'Infusion is born and will finish its fermentation in oak barrels. With indigenous yeasts Batonnage: Only when the wine needs it Liqueur de tirage: Wine from the Cuvée Rosé d'Infusion brewed with organic raw sugar. Dosage liqueur: Identical to Tirage liqueur but aged in Magnum for 18 months. Vinification and aging: Every year in barrels from the Tonnellerie de Champagne and François Frère. New kegs 20%, second fill kegs 20%, fifth fill kegs 60%. Aging of 9 months on the fine lees Sulphurisation: no sulphurisation during harvest to facilitate the work of native yeasts. After the alcoholic fermentation, a sulphurization of 2gr/hl is applied.

Marie Courtin Indulgence 2019 Rosé - Bio

100% Pinot Noir Dosage: 0g/l Matured in tank Maceration 3 to 4 days Stamped out with the feet Peter Liem: Her first attempt at rosé was in 2011, due to the perfect health of her harvest in that vintage. Called Indulgence, it's made entirely from pinot noir, and its maceration was unusually long, lasting for four days. "I didn't want to make something fruity and easy," she says. "I wanted something reflective of the Aube, of our soils here. There's a tradition here in the Aube for long maceration, and I think it's appropriate for our pinot noir." Vinification takes place in tank, producing a deep, intensely fragrant rosé champagne, but quantities are necessarily small: fewer than 3,000 bottles in that first release. Its dark, brambly flavors of cherry and redcurrant are sappy and dense, underlined by intense notes of spicy, flinty minerality, and its structure is firm and almost tannic on the finish. It’s more like a light red wine than a traditional rosé champagne, but it’s delicious, and highly expressive of Aube terroir. Antonio Galloni Vintage 2015 – 95P: The 2015 is fabulous. Dried rose petal, herbs, mint, sweet red cherry and a host of savory accents all run through the 2015. Beguiling and nuanced at every turn, the Indulgence certainly lives up to its name! It is another wine in this range I absolutely adore.
