Champagne Tribaut Schloesser - L’authentique Rosé 2014 Extra Brut

Guide VERON des Champagnes 2020

(around 53 euros per bottle)

Numbered bottle and traditional wire with hemp string.

Aspect:

Bright colour and copper-coloured.

Fine bubbles.

Fine bead of bubbles, persistent.

Nose:

Sensual and radiant compilation of fragrances of jammy red and black fruits, signature of the majority of black varietals (80% of Pinot Noir and Meunier) vinified with pellicular maceration, highlighted by touches of citrus fruits and exotic fruits, outstanding characteristic signs of the Chardonnay (20%).

The maturity of the champagne gently establishes itself with scents of honey and caramel, result of 3 years of ageing of the bottles, before riddling and disgorgement.

Palate:

Joyful vitality at the opening, reinforced by the minimalist dosage with 4 g/L of sugar added at disgorgement and supported by the touching minerality of the selected terroirs with the localities « Georgette » in Romery and « Pitance et Mère vignes » in Fleury-la-Rivière in the Marne Valley.

Remarkable presence, deep and powerful, underlined by delicate woody notes, reflecting the vinification and the ageing of the Chardonnay base wines in oak barrels.

Dynamic finish, subtly spicy.

Endless length on the palate.

For this reserved cuvée L’authentique Rosé 2014 Extra Brut, Sébastien Tribaut was able to accompany with daring grapes harvested by hand in 2014, to sign a rare champagne. 

To taste from aperitif to meal, with beef rolls and spices, for example.
