This 2012 vintage is the fruit of a year of contrasts, marked by a succession of chance climate effects; its existence is almost miraculous, as the weather conditions in the early part of the year threatened the vines themselves. But starting in late July, a flood of bright sunlight coupled with low yields allowed the grapes to reach a rare level of maturity. The wines produced from these Chardonnay grapes would be complex, elegant and refined. The Pinot Noirs would be full-bodied, powerful and beautifully expressive with aromas of red fruit. This wine zealously embodies the exceptional union of the Pinot Noir and Chardonnay Grands Crus, characterised by the remarkable harmony and balance they display. It carries all the power and precision of the Comtes de Champagne Rosé, but also the fragrant generosity of the 2012 vintage.
This singular millésime echoes the superb maturity of the Chardonnay grapes, and is built upon the chalky, mineral body unique to the Comtes de Champagne style, conferring incredible aromatic refinement and a singular strength of character. Until reaching its peak expression, the Comtes de Champagne rosé demands time to develop, benefiting from the slow maturation required in order for this wine to truly flourish.
