CHAMPAGNE COLLET CHAMPAGNE BRUT ROSE 750ML

VINEYARDS & WINEMAKING: Champagne Collet’s vineyard sources are in Premier and Grand Cru villages that reflect the diversity of Champagne’s terroirs. The fruit comes from 850 growers spread over 160 different crus (there are a total of 320 crus in Champagne). However winemaker Sebastien Walasiak uses no more than 10% of the overall vineyard yields. Sebastien blends the base wines of the classic Champagne varieties from hundreds of individual vineyards and several vintages – vital because blending is the ultimate art of Champagne and is the key to maintaining Champagne Collet’s incomparable house style. The wines are aged far beyond the minimum requirement in the winery’s 100-year-old chalk cellars resulting in softer wines needing less dosage. _x000D_

TASTING NOTES: Pinot Noir adds depth and structure Chardonnay creates elegance and finesse and Pinot Meunier imparts freshness and rich fruit driven flavors. This elegant champagne is made from only 20 crus and aged for a minimum of four years. It shows aromas of dark red fruits and red rose notes. The palate is rich with floral and honeyed flavors. It strikes a perfect balance between depth and freshness._x000D_
