The Champagne Rosé from Maison Jacques Selosse is a blend of two vintages of Avize chardonnay (94%) and Ambonnay pinot noir (6%). This Grand Cru is produced in very small quantities (2000 bottles). Vinification and ageing take place in Burgundian barrels (Maison style), then after blending and bottling, a long ageing process is spread out in the cellar over 6 years. Finally, this powerful, vinous Champagne is lightly dosed at 1.5g/L. La robe is a luminous, salmon-pink color. The nose is a veritable procession of fruit and spices: apple (Maison style), wild strawberry, pomegranate, pineapple, vanilla ginger, almond ... making it a dense, charming Champagne Rosé, between gourmandise and lightness. The palate is full and light at the same time, marked by tangy notes of redcurrant, raspberry, lemon and grapefruit; we also find those eXOtic notes of musk and ginger that confirm this wild freshness. The finish is very long, straight and airy, with a persistent return of minerality and spices. This is a pure delight that will sublimate a crab turnover, goat Secs cheeses or even a red fruit vanilla entremet.
