CRITIC REVIEWS
Yohan Castaing
The Comtes de Champagne Rosé is composed of 30% Chardonnay (Grands Crus from Côtes de Blancs), 70% Pinot Noir (Grands Crus from Montagne de Reims, including 15% Pinot Noir from Bouzy, vinified as red wine). It has strawberry, mint, rose petal and cherry notes on the exuberant nose. The palate is racy and creamy, very compact and fresh, with a delicate salty note on the finish.

Pale strawberry colour with an orange tinge (none of this provençal pale nonsense…). Lots of evolution and real bite on the end. No attempt at being smooth; this wants to finish dry (drier than the Blanc de Blancs in fact) making a really textural impact on the palate. Mixed-citrus-peel sensation – a bit like the flavours you get in Sicilian cannoli. Extremely appetising and unusual. Long and complex. A food wine really…
