Biodynamic Champagne Fleury Rosé De Saignée Brut

The Fleury family were the first Champagne producer of the Côte des Bars, which started with vintage 1929. They later became the first biodynamic producer in the whole of Champagne. Pinot thrives in the chalk-clay soils of the region, giving a vinous character which can be attributed to their proximity to Burgundy.
 
This incredible Rosé is 100% old vine Pinot Noir, grown in the family’s vineyards near Couteron. After harvest the juice is given a short period of maceration on skins, in a similar way to red wine making. The impact is extraordinary, giving a vivid berry pink colour, wild berry aromatics and favours of plum pie, red current-rhubarb crumble and a perfumed vinous character. The finish is dry, but it is richer and more textured than many Champagnes. Firmly mineral. Drink now to 2030.
