Alexandre Bonnet - La Forêt Rosé de Saignée - Champagne Les Riceys

About This Item

Overview: On the steepest slopes of Champagne at the gateway to Burgundy, the renowned Kimmeridgian limestone contributes its unique aromas to the wines made in the three appellations of Les Riceys. Domaine Alexandre Bonnet produces some of the most highly prized wines in the Côte des Bar.

From our favorite south-facing single vineyard with extremely rugged terrain, La Forêt is an intense and distinctive skin maceration rosé: Pinot Noir from Les Riceys with enhanced style.  

Tasting Notes:Clear, ruby red with a touch of brick. Intense Burlat cherry aromas, fruits of the forest, black currant, blueberry, peppermint, and black pepper. 

Pairing: Pair with prime rib, pigeon salmis, grilled lamb chops. 

Points:92, Donald Wrinkler

Format/ABV: 750 ml/12.5%
