Guide VERON des Champagnes 2016
(around 32 euros per bottle)
Original
bottle, dressed in an elegant and festive evening wear.
Aspect :
·
Sensual hue, with coppery glints.
·
Particularly fine and sparkling bubbles.
·
Refined and persistent bead of bubbles.
Nose :
·
Radiant
and charming, touching harmony between power and subtlety.
·
Joyful
fragrances of red and black fruits (blackberry, blackcurrant, raspberry,
strawberry and cherry liqueur), expressions of the 10% of Pinot Noir produced
as red wine in 2011.
·
The
nose then reveals its subtlety with some hints of almond and hazelnut,
supported by some aromas of apple, pear, citrus fruits, apricot and candied
grape, delicately iodized, signatures of the Chardonnay (90%) carefully
selected in the Grand Cru terroir of
Oger in 2010.
Palate :
·
Lively attack, animated by a touching and mineral tension
that carries us through the tasting.
·
The mouth then becomes deep and dense, with a
remarkable presence.
·
We find again the red fruits and citrus fruits already
perceived at the nose, enhanced by a generous and dynamic effervescence.
·
Smooth and warm finish, barely spicy, reinforced by
the accurate dosage, with 8 g/L of sugar added at disgorgement.
With this Cuvée 150
Rosé Grand Cru by Caroline Milan, original creation for the sesquicentennial of
the House Jean Milan, Caroline Milan was able to blend with talent the red wine
(10%) and the white wine (90%), in the respect of the champenois tradition, to
sign a high quality blended Champagne Rosé Grand Cru.
To taste
from aperitif to meal, to accompany a salmon, with some foie gras raviolis and
oysters, for example.
Established on 6 hectares of
Chardonnay, on the Grand Cru of Oger, in the heart of the Côte des Blancs,
since 1864, the Champagne House Milan combines oenological creativity and
expertise to produce and market around 110,000 bottles of highly expressive
Champagnes each year, 60% of which for export.
