Aroma on this one is much more subtle on the fruit instead embracing dessert flavors of vanilla, chocolate, and butterscotch (maybe a subtle hint of diacetyl). Some oak aromas ground out the deserts. Lots of cocoa on the palette and with mild subdued tannins and a light acidity on the finish. — 3 months ago

Not sure if anyone’s noticed, but lately, my tasting notes here have been a little scarce. Not for lack of tasting - trust me, the bottles have been opened, the glasses filled, and my palate put to work. But so many have been uninspiring, fleeting, forgotten before the last sip. And then, boom! A bottle like this.
Popped in the morning, savored through the evening. Great at first, but by dinner, it had truly unfurled. The nose? Cherries, plums, warm spices, rose hips, pink peppercorn, chalk, and orange zest, with a whisper of apricot. The palate? Plush yet precise, broad yet focused. Biscuity richness and an electric minerality. A saline, vinous, full-bodied stunner that lingers impossibly long.
This just reaffirms what I think about this wine - one of the best pink expressions from Champagne, period.
NB: In my mind (and admittedly, limited experience), the best champagne rosé’s include:
Selosse Rosé - haven’t had it in ages, but many bottles had in the past have brought great joy.
Bouchard Enfer - honestly, my sample size is too small, but both times were really impressive; though it must be noted that my company then thought it was more intellectual than pleasurable (too phenolic and soft).
Bereche Remensis - best value rosé? Consistently delicious and complex.
I have heard from friends that the DP P2 and P3 rosé’s deserve to be high on any list. Hope to try them one day.

Nicely aged blend, enjoyed in 2025.
Syrah most prevalent, opened up well once allowed to breathe. — 3 months ago
Gooseberry in the nose. Pear, tart apple, stone. Rather short, acidic finish. Very nice for an inexpensive Chablis. — 6 months ago

A bit of sweetness after so many dry Italians. Still, this proves either it’s pedigree or vintage, maybe both. — a month ago
