Highly acclaimed and highly quaffable Champagne.
Production
The Pinot Noir grapes are pressed for up to 2 hours to extract the jus de presse, then vinified and blended to give this delicate and delicious rosé Champagne. Champagne must age for a minimum of 15 months before release. Gremillet age all their Rosé Champagnes for a minimum of 22 months to ensure that the wines are not too young and have married all the elements.

Tasting notes
A delicate yet rich, Pinot Noir-based rosé from a Pinot Noir specialist, this has a fine mousse, wonderful texture and deliciously tangy finish. Beautiful!
Food match
Quaff liberally, well chilled, but also perhaps with roast duck, mild cheeses or fresh berries.

Meet the producer
The Gremillet estate was founded by Jean-Michel Gremillet in 1979 when he inherited a plot of vines from his mother, Lulu. Today, the house possesses over 40 hectares of vineyards and is situated in a small village 45 kilometres from Troyes - the historic capital of Champagne - and 180 kilometres south of Reims. The vines lie on steep, sun-drenched hillsides in Kimmeridgian clay-limestone soils. Pinot Noir is king here, and constitutes around 94% of Gremillet’s plantings, with the remainder dedicated to Chardonnay, ideal for creating a classic, baked biscuit, rich, fruit-flavoured Champagne
