I drank this with Damien Hugot and his wife at the Royal Champagne, the newly refurbished hotel and Michelin one-star restaurant just between Epernay and Reims this spring, and have been thinking about it ever since. This is a clean, refreshing style of rosé that gets hints of richness not from the small percentage of ancient vine Meunier that is added, but rather from the Cramant and Chouilly base of Chardonnay that makes up more than 90% of the blend. This is “rosé all day” rosé, with bright red fruit and racy minerality, along with top-notch chalk on the long finish.

This is an extraordinary rose made of primarily (95%) Grand Cru chardonnay that costs under $40! It is has a relatively low dosage of 6g/L and is exceptionally pretty, delicate and balanced with a nice blend of citrus and strawberry fruits with nice toast from four years on the lees. No joke, this holds up with Big House rosés that cost twice as much.

Another winner from the K & L's direct import Champagne line-up! Easy to enjoy on its own with its freshness of red berries, med sized bubbles and lush extra dry finish. This is a delicious and lengthily blend that is easy to sip solo but can stand up to petite appetizers also.

The Damien Hugot Rose Extra Brut Champagne is dry, crisp, and bright. This Extra Brut is bursting with strawberry, fresh lemon, orchard fruit, and melon characterisitcs. Delicious and complex... this Rose Champagne will be a crowd pleaser for any occasion!

Notes

This all estate grown rosé is based on old-vine Chardonnay from Chouilly and Cramant. It gets its rosé color and flavor from an ancient plot of Meunier grown just between the villages of Chavot and Monthelon south of Epernay. It is a refreshing, elegant style of rosé, great for the aperitif or to pair with a smoked salmon appetizer. (Gary Westby, K&L Champagne buyer)
