The 2008 Comtes de Champagne Rose is bright, steely and finely chiseled right out of the gate. It shows quite a bit or energy and also more overall tension than the Blanc today. It will be interesting to see how the 2008 ages, and if the fruit ever emerges. I suspect the 2008 will always remain a rather nervous Rose, even if it is quite striking today. Crushed red berry fruit, mint, chalk and white pepper build into a finish supported by bright, salivating acids and plenty of steely minerality.

Futurotheque project: not yet released. Mid strawberry pink. Big and punchy. A bit like a rose still wine. Not subtle!
