NV Alfred Gratien Rose Brut Champagne
| Description: | They add Grand Cru Pinot Noir from Bouzy 12% red to the blend for the color. A blend of 2008 and 2007 disgorged in January 2012, although the cryptic numbers on the foil mean nothing to the lay person you have to have the special Alfred Gratien decoder ring to figure this out, I wish more people would put this information on the back label in clear English, Chinese, French, some recognizable language. Strawberry and red cherry fruit, red plum and rose petal floral notes red licorice spice, very pretty bouquet. A tangy red berry fruit on the tongue around 9 grams per liter of residual and this number changes every year based on the acidity of the vintage. A good amount of the rose floral nuance through the finish nice freshness and balance through the finish. Finish 45 They have decreased the dosage 5 grams in the last decade with this cuvee, like so many of the Champagne houses have decided to make dryer styles of bubbly the last decade. Excellent. |
