Camille Saves Grand Cru Rose NV (750ML)
From Champagne
| Description: | 93 Bh / 92 Vm / 91 Ws / 91 We. Our current stock is based on the outstanding 2012 vintage. Note: 60% chardonnay, 40% pinot noir, disgorged May 2019, 3 years on lees, dosage 8 g/L. Tasting note: Oeil de perdrix color. Softly yeasty and decidedly cool and elegant aromas include those of freshly sliced citrus, especially lime, raspberry and a whisper of strawberry. There is excellent intensity to the finely detailed flavors that are supported by an equally fine mousse, all wrapped in a crisp, even snappy, finish that also drinks much drier than the stated dosage level would suggest; indeed, this is borderline austere, which isn't something that happens all that often with rosé sparklers. - Burghound. (60% chardonnay and 40% pinot noir): Bright orange-pink. Smoky, mineral-accented red berries and blood orange on the expressive nose, accented by Asian spices and white flowers. Fleshy and broad on entry, then tighter in the mid-palate, offering intense raspberry, bitter cherry and orange pith flavors and notes of smoky lees and anise. Shows excellent clarity on the seamless, spicy finish, which clings with impressive tenacity. - Josh Raynolds, Vinous Media. A mouthwatering rosé Champagne, crunchy in texture, with flavors of white raspberry, chopped hazelnut, fleur de sel and lemon meringue complementing the lively mousse. A bright aperitif. - Alison Napjus - Wine Spectator. With vines in the Grand Cru village of Bouzy, this producer has a fine palette at its disposal. The rosé-crisp with Chardonnay yet bolstered with rich Pinot Noir-is full bodied and packed with raspberry and red currant fruit. Still young, it's lively with acidity and exuberant fruitiness. - Roger Voss, Wine Enthusiast |
