Brut Rosé de Blanc N/V

- 92 points -

A medium salmon color, the NV Champagne Rosé De Blancs Brut is based on the 2016 vintage and is almost entirely Chardonnay, with 8% red wine of Pinot Noir added from the Grand Cru village of Bouzy. The wine opens to a perfume of cantaloupe, honeysuckle, pastry dough, and grapefruit zest, and it’s chalky in its texture through the palate, with an ease and approachability that are quite charming while feeling fully dry. This is a very pretty wine to enjoy over the next 6-8 years, although I like it where it is now.
