Tasting Notes
Aroma
An immediate bouquet of forest fruit (wild strawberries
and raspberries) and citrus (blood orange) with some
zesty and powdery petal-like notes (rose-flavoured
macaroons). Upon aeration, the citrus fruit gives way
to iodised and chocolate nuances with a few spicy and
resinous (cedar) overtones.
Appearance
Lovely pink hue with light copper tints. Steady flow of fine bubbles.
Palate
The palate is caressingly soft, delicious, delicate and
elegant. We have the sensation of a silky texture that
softly evaporates to give way to a cloud of delicate
and slightly spicy perfumes. The fruit is concentrated
and almost liqueur-like on the mid-palate where it is
energised by the fresh and iodised flavours. On the
finish, the delectable chocolate nuances combine with
the chalky freshness to create a lingering and pure
impression of salinity.
Vinification
A rose created by a long, gentle infusion
of Pinot noir that extracts its juicy
ripeness while preserving its tremendous
saline freshness. In this process, some
Chardonnay juices are added to the Pinot
Noir maceration, to ferment together and
achieve the perfect integration of the two
grape varieties.
Vintage Notes
2017 was a year of living dangerously! An exceptionally
warm and dry winter and spring, but the latter brought
severe frosts from 1 7 to 29 April, setting the sorry record
for 12 nights of frost. These were followed by a dull,
wet and not particularly hot summer, which ended in
an almost tropical (hot and humid) spell at the end of
August. This sudden change led to a significant increase
in grey rot on the ripening Pinot noir and Meunier grapes.
The harvest was fast-paced and completed very quickly
demanding very precise and methodical selection work
of an unprecedented level even for Roederer.
