La Grande Année 2015 - Texture and Elegance - The delicate blending process behind a great champagne and a unique red wine. La Grande Année Rosé is another expression of La Grande Année, enhanced by the addition of a unique red wine from the Côte aux Enfants. A blend of 11 crus, predominantly 62% Pinot Noir (from Verzenay, Aÿ, Mareuil-sur-Aÿ) and 38% Chardonnay (from Chouilly and Avize), including 5% La Côte aux Enfants. The exquisite texture, concentration and generosity of this vintage is evident in each and every bottle. A nose full of primary aromas, offering a delicious composition of fruit flavours, blending strawberry juice, mandarin and rhubarb. Silky mouthfeel, the prelude to a voluptuous, juicy wine. On the palate, stone fruits set the tone ahead of a finish full of blood orange notes, a harmonious combination which shapes a tannic and elegant structure. A delicate hint of oiliness on the finish brings the tasting to a close.
