Christian Etienne - "La Rose" Champagne Brut Rose NV (750ml)

A blend from the 2009 and 2010 grape harvests. All the grapes are hand-harvested in early September from vines aged around 25 years old and planted on clay-limestone soils. This 2009 Pinot Noir was vinified in oak barrels and spent a year in barrel, while the 2010 Chardonnay was vinified in stainless steel tank. The secondary fermentation occurs in bottle with more than three years of aging before being disgorged, which happens three months before being released with a dosage of 10 grams.
