Wine Critic Reviews
Hints of ripe peach, passion fruit and juicy acidity are carried on a tightly knit, satiny mousse in this firm rosé, layered with spiced plum, dried cherry, smoke and star anise notes. Try this with charcuterie.
With plenty of strawberry fruits on offer here, this has a very fresh and exuberant nose that shows assertive fruit characters. On the palate, this is smoothly textured, really even and balanced. Made for an immediate consumption and ever so smooth. Such attractive balance. Drink now. Interestingly, more than 20% of production at Moët et Chandon is rosé, so around twice the average for the region.
(roughly 45% Pinot Noir, 35% Pinot Meunier and 20% Chardonnay, with 9 g/l dosage; LAH9V): Dark, vivid pink. Ripe red berries, rose oil and tangerine on the nose, plus a subtle note of toasty lees. Bitter cherry and berry skin flavors give way to softer raspberry in the middle, with a tangy blood orange nuance adding cut and lift. Packs a punch but shows very good clarity and delineation, finishing round, smooth and quite long.
