The light rust and amber color is enticing. Aromas of dried rose petals, cinnamon and nutmeg. Hints of dried meat, smoke and sage. Orange peel, too. Full-bodied with a compact, creamy texture. So fine and delicious. Great, subtle and complex flavors. More like a lightly aged, premier-cru Volnay, but with the magic of Champagne. Drink now.
Jancis Robinson: Quite deep rose gold. Ripe tomato nose. Quite a bit of fine tannin. Edgy and lively. Food wine. Still quite chewy. This was the first year when the white was released before the rosé.
