Andre Clouet Brut Rose Grand Cru
Description: | Two types of wines are generally considered as the "go to" Valentine's Day romantic drink of choice. Champagne (all sparkling wine, but Champagne in particular) and red wine (Cabs & Pinots, mainly). Dessert wine may be thrown into the mix now and then, from Rieslings to Sauternes, but bubbles and the color red take the main attention for this holiday. In the Champagne world, ross have the lead on non-ross-- Oprah has the Color Purple but Valentine's Day certainly has the color Pink. And it works incredibly well for both Champagne and the day celebrating love. A hands down staff favorite, as well as being our best-selling Ros Champagne under fifty dollars. This is Grand Cru juice for under $50!! Australian Champagne scribe Tyson Stelzer is a huge fan as well, writing: "Clouet N3 was inspired by Coco Chanel, the number introduced to denote the style, recognising that the color is different each year, with the number 3 representing a light, elegant apritif style. Clouet's base ros epitomises elegance and focus, while flamboyantly celebrating the generous raspberries, red cherries and pomegranates of Bouzy. The depth and presence of the village are sensitively toned by the lively, bright acidity and fresh precision of the house. Structure is fine and confident, driven by the chalk minerality of the village, working seamlessly in concert with finely executed tannin texture. It finishes with great length, vibrancy and elegance, with lingering poise and detail of exquisite red berry fruits. An engaging and enticingly priced ros of primary integrity and pretty medium salmon crimson hue. 94/100." - The Champagne Guide 2020-2021 |
