Egly-Ouriet Brut Rosé Grand Cru NV

Rumbling power with delicate finesse, this is a rose of medium salmon hue, bursting with the exuberance and beguiling transparency of Ambonnay pinot noir. Fragrant rosebuds and wild strawberries open into glorious depth of black cherry fruits of exacting ripeness, cherry kernel, fig and mixed spice. Very fresh and focussed for its age, with a universe of complexity lingering very long, precise and lively amidst fine chalk mineral texture.

Medium salmon-pink with fine copper reflections; very fine, long-lasting mousse. Fresh cherries, a hint of strawberry jam, white apple, mineral nuances, and fresh lime zest. On the palate juicy, elegant, creamy texture, traces of date and fig, fine acidity, mineral and fresh; a sturdy rosé style with very good length and multiple uses. (Deg. 7/2018).
