LARMANDIER-BERNIER Rosé de Saignée Extra Brut Vertus

LARMANDIER-BERNIER Rosé de Saignée Extra Brut Vertus

Grapes: Pinot Noir  Origin: France, Non Vintage Rosé
Lea & Sandeman review
This is a genuine 'rosé de saignée' made only from Pinot Noir. Grapes are destemmed and left to macerate for about two days before the juice is bled off for fermentation. The wine is matured on the lees over winter, and after being aged in the cellars is given only a very discreet 'dosage' (3 grams of sugar). Full bodied, elegant and very pure flavours.

Other reviews and comments
Deep pink. Musky redcurrant and strawberry on the nose, with exotic licorice and violet qualities adding interest. Fleshy red fruit flavors offer impressive depth, with a firming edge of amaro-like bitterness carrying through the finish. This is a fascinating and unique group of Champagnes, but they are probably not for those who shy away from earth-driven wines.   92/100
Josh Raynolds, Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar
Issu de saignée, la cuvée n'utilise que des pinots noirs de Vertus. Sa robe est très soutenue et le nez exprime fortement les fruits rouges. La bouche est dense et révèle une forte personnalité qui individualise, avec puissance, la pureté du fruit. Le dosage est parfait
Gault et Millau
Larmandier-Bernier’s NV Extra Brut Rose de Saignee is one of the most profound wines I encountered in my tastings. The color resembles the tonality of blood orange juice. This is a powerful wine that flows onto the palate with an expression of bright red fruit that recalls the wines of Chambolle in its luxuriousness, but is backed up with serious structure. This compelling, totally seductive wine possesses awesome richness and vibrancy, with layers of aromas and flavors that continue to develop in the glass all the way through to the long, intensely satisfying finish. The wine could be served alongside any dish that might be served with grand cru Burgundy, but like all of the world’s great wines, this is a bottle that creates its own occasion. Larmandier-Bernier completely redefines what Rose can be all about with this monumental effort. The estate’s rose is 100% Pinot Noir from Vertus vinified on the skins (saignee) and bottled with 3 grams of dosage. Anticipated maturity: 2008-2016.   96/100
