This lively rosé, blended from almost equal amounts of Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Pinot Meunier, with a little still Pinot Noir thrown in, captures both elegance and prominent, yet not heavy, red fruitiness. It continues to impress, sip after sip. Although the label says Premier Cru, a portion of the grapes, presumably at least some of the Pinot Noir, comes Äy, the Grand Cru village known for that variety. Enough of the geeky stuff. Down to what really counts. This captivating rosé Champagne is delicious, with sufficient oomph, without being overdone, and cut to accompany a wide variety of food. We had it with tacos and it sang!
