Description: Jean Francois Clouet is now at the helm of these family-owned vineyards covering 8 hectares in the sloped vineyards of Grand Cru Bouzy and Ambonnay. It took the Clouet family more than two centuries and several generations to build up their collection of vineyards. The wines are crafted using the traditional methods of Champagne production, with respect to the terroir and sense of place. They are cellared under the family's 17th century village house which was originally built by Jean Francois' ancestor who, as an interesting note of history, acted as printer to Louis XV's royal court at Versailles. " Clouet N°3 was inspired by Coco Chanel, the number introduced to denote the style, recognizing that the color is different each year, with the number 3 representing a light, elegant apĂŠritif style. Clouet's base rosĂŠ epitomizes 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 rosĂŠ of primary integrity and pretty medium salmon crimson hue" - The Champagne Guide - Tyson Stelzer |
