Jacquesson et Fils 2003 Dizy Terres Rouges Rosé Extra Brut (Champagne)

Country: France / Dizy Terres Rouges Rosé Extra Brut
Variety: Champagne Blend Champagne
Winery: Jacquesson et Fils / Champagne

For a rosé Champagne, the deep pink color is extraordinary. So is the palate, definitely more a red wine than a Champagne, tasting of spice, wood from fermentation and very ripe red berries, with a tannic texture. The wine was made by getting color from the skins, rather than by the usual rosé Champagne method of adding still red wine.
