(around 31
euros per bottle)
Original bottle, in white glass to better enhance the colour of the
wine.
Aspect:
Nose:
Generous
and captivating aromatic harmony.
The
radiant scents of red and black fruits (cherry, strawberry, raspberry,
blackcurrant, blackberry and redcurrant), barely spicy, endlessly mingle,
touching signatures of the Pinot Noir, exclusive varietal of the cuvée, delicately harvested by hand in
2015, and then rigoroulsly selected by experienced grape pickers, on the
south-facing slopes of plots selected in the historical terroir of Fleury-la-Rivière.
Palate:
Vertiginous
purity at the opening, thanks to the timely stop of the malolactic fermentation
of the base wines.
The
mouth becomes caressing, supple and creamy, supported by the dosage with
8 g/L of sugar added at disgorgement, magnificent expression of the
maceration of the grapes crushed and destemmed for 16 to 18 hours before
racking.
Balanced
finish, deliciously acidulous and warm, driven by the delicate effervescence.
Interminable
length on the palate.
With this Rosé de
Saignée, Jérôme Niziolek-Demière, artisan wine grower, unleashes his talent of
wine maker to sign a masterful rosé made by maceration, new unmissable opus
of the range « Millésimes & Confidentielles ».
To taste as an
aperitif or during a meal, with a snacked prawn tail and summer truffle, for
example.
Now settled in their
wine warehouse built in 2015, with a panoramic view over the Marne Valley,
Audrey Demière and Jérôme Niziolek-Demière preside with passion over the
destiny of the Champagne house Demière since 1998. An 8.5 hectares
vineyard with a good southern exposure in the terroir of Fleury-la Rivière, rich in chalky sand, and a demanding
and creative œnology give birth each year to around 70,000 bottles of
champagnes of pleasure, divided in 2 ranges: « Cuvées de tradition »
and « Millésimes & Confidentielles ».
