Dilection Brut Millésimé Rosé Champagne Blend 2015
The 2015 vintage kicked out 1852 as the hottest vintage in Champagne until 2018 came along. This is mostly Chardonnay and the rest Pinot Meunier. No dosage.
Leads with cherries that have a liqueur quality. Very ripe, juicy & strawberries, some black raspberries, blood orange, guava, very, thick, almost foamy mousse, limestone & chalk powder, some white pepper, only hues of sea fossils, light sea spray, white spice with heat as it sets, red & pink roses with a touch of spring flowers, excellent, soft acidity, softly woven & structured, well balanced and a subtle polished finish that lasts over a minute.
