Description
In a nutshell:
An attractive, plush style of rosé Champagne
The lowdown:
Very appetizing both on the eye and on the tongue, Gremillet's Brut Rosé is a pink Champagne that hits all the right notes (and in the right order). Pinot Noir forms backbone here and while there's a pleasing delicacy it's underpinned with a little extra richness that is a bit of a Gremillet trademark. It has the fine bubbles of all good Champagne and a wonderful texture that leads up to the tangy finish. It's aged for a minimum of 22 months which all the elements have had time to marry together properly. Quite a treat and not too hefty on the pocket.
The Producer:
The Gremillet estate was founded by Jean-Michel Gremillet in 1979 when he inherited a plot of vines from his mother, Lulu. Today, the house possesses over 40 hectares of vineyards and is situated in a small village 45 kilometres from Troyes - the historic capital of Champagne - and 180 kilometres south of Reims. The vines lie on steep, sun-drenched hillsides in Kimmeridgian clay-limestone soils. Pinot Noir is king here, and constitutes around 94% of Gremillets plantings, with the remainder dedicated to Chardonnay, ideal for creating a classic, baked biscuit, rich, fruit-flavoured Champagne.
When to drink:
Great served with canapés as an apertif; great served with game such as roast duck; great with fresh berries in a dessert - pretty adaptable we'd say.
Suitable for Vegetarians
