Rosé
Not only is rosé spectacular in taste, smell and looks, it’s simply sensational with food. Next time you are going to a dinner party and you don’t know what's on the menu, be a great guest and take a bottle of rosé champagne.
How does rosé get that gorgeous rosy hue, you ask? There are two methods that determine which 50 shades of pink will be produced in each bottle. The first is Rosé de saignée, which means to bleed. The second is rosé d'assemblage - the blending of white and red wine. Neither one is better than the other – they are just different, catering to all wine lovers.

The family runs just over 9 hectares, most of which in Avize but also in the Montagne de Reims and Ambonnay, also a small vineyard in the Marne Valley - Mardeuil. The main characteristics of De Sousa Champagne are; *'Vieilles Vignes' or old-vine viticulture. *The vineyards are ploughed traditionally by horse and some of the oldest vines go back to the early 1930's. *Full malolactic fermentation. *Extended lees ageing. *Ageing of reserve wines in barrel. Ericks' winemaking philosophy supports later ripening which allows the vines to benefit from the mineral-rich soils. This interaction enables the champagne to develop a palate profile that has abundance and purity and in our view, a remarkable length and finish compared to many other champagnes.\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e","published_at":"2018-07-26T10:01:42+10:00","created_at":"2018-07-25T16:10:40+10:00","vendor":"De Sousa","type":"Rosé","tags":["$100-200","Biodynamic","Brut","Club wines","Exclusive","Grower","New Arrival","Organic","Pinot Noir Red Wine","Region: Avize","Rose","Taste: Biodynamic","Taste: Campari","Taste: Chardonnay Dominant","Taste: Cherry Kernel","Taste: Creamy","Taste: Mineral","Taste: Red Fruits","Taste: Rose petals","Taste: Spice","Taste: Strawberry","Year: NV"],"price":10999,"price_min":10999,"price_max":10999,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":12519424098413,"title":"Single","option1":"Single","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"DE_SOUSA_ROSE_SGL","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"De Sousa Rosé - Single","public_title":"Single","options":["Single"],"price":10999,"weight":1500,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_quantity":32,"inventory_management":"shopify","inventory_policy":"deny","barcode":"3760030290037","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[]}],"images":["\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1922\/1617\/products\/De-Sousa-Rose-Emperor-Champagne.jpg?v=1603930880"],"featured_image":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1922\/1617\/products\/De-Sousa-Rose-Emperor-Champagne.jpg?v=1603930880","options":["Please select"],"media":[{"alt":null,"id":8024949489773,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.5,"height":1080,"width":540,"src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1922\/1617\/products\/De-Sousa-Rose-Emperor-Champagne.jpg?v=1603930880"},"aspect_ratio":0.5,"height":1080,"media_type":"image","src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1922\/1617\/products\/De-Sousa-Rose-Emperor-Champagne.jpg?v=1603930880","width":540}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Biodynamic producer carving out textural and powerful wines\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Made using 92% grand \u0026amp; premier cru chardonnay with 8% pinot noir red wine from Aÿ\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Pair with some ocean trout.

The main characteristics of De Sousa Champagne are; *'Vieilles Vignes' or old-vine viticulture. *The vineyards are ploughed traditionally by horse and some of the oldest vines go back to the early 1930's. *Full malolactic fermentation. *Extended lees ageing. *Ageing of reserve wines in barrel. Ericks' winemaking philosophy supports later ripening which allows the vines to benefit from the mineral-rich soils. This interaction enables the champagne to develop a palate profile that has abundance and purity and in our view, a remarkable length and finish compared to many other champagnes.\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e"}

They are located in the small village of Urville in the Côte des Bar where Pinot Noir, the predominant grape variety, finds its purest expression and allows the production of very elegant, aromatic wines. With an annual production of some 1.5 million bottles, they are considerably larger than a small grower, but not quite of the size of the Grande Marques in and around Reims and Epernay. Drappier is one of the foremost producers in the region which is highly respected amongst its peers like Cédric Bouchard, Marie-Courtin, Vouette et Sorbée, and Jacques Lassaigne. They own 55 hectares of vineyards and use another 50 hectares under contract with other growers. A an interesting historical fact is that Charles de Gaulle (the Former Minister of the Armed Forces in France) was very fond of their Champagne and they named a cuvée after him. Amongst their range of excellent cuvées, they have a range including a ‘Sulphur free’, ‘Zero dosage’, and a ‘Blanc de blancs’ that contains a forgotten grape called Blanc Vrai.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFood suggestion\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cp field=\"recipename\" itemprop=\"name\"\u003eWe love the sheer juiciness and fruit drive in this wine with a little tannic grip, so we thought let's go with a seared tuna steak or any variation of duck you may like.\u003c\/p\u003e","published_at":"2018-11-14T21:44:54+11:00","created_at":"2019-04-02T10:18:43+11:00","vendor":"Drappier","type":"Rosé","tags":["Club wines","Exclusive","Low Sulphur","Region: Urville","Rosé","Taste: Aged 3 Years on Lees","Taste: Creamy","Taste: Floral","Taste: Malolactic Fermention","Taste: No Filtration","Taste: Organic","Taste: Pink Grapefruit","Taste: Pinot Noir Dominant","Taste: Saignee","Taste: Stainless Steel Fermentation","Taste: Textural","Taste: Texture","Taste: wild raspberry","Year: NV"],"price":9600,"price_min":9600,"price_max":9600,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":15262840750189,"title":"Single","option1":"Single","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"DRAPPIER_ROSE","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":{"id":4771870539885,"product_id":1603365011565,"position":1,"created_at":"2019-04-02T10:21:13+11:00","updated_at":"2020-04-24T21:26:39+10:00","alt":"Drappier-Rose-de-Saignee-Emperor-Champagne","width":565,"height":737,"src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1922\/1617\/products\/Drappier-Rose-de-Saignee-Emperor-Champagne.jpg?v=1587727599","variant_ids":[15262840750189]},"available":true,"name":"Drappier Rosé de Saignée - Single","public_title":"Single","options":["Single"],"price":9600,"weight":1500,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_quantity":9,"inventory_management":"shopify","inventory_policy":"deny","barcode":"3469380630417","featured_media":{"alt":"Drappier-Rose-de-Saignee-Emperor-Champagne","id":1580718653549,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.767,"height":737,"width":565,"src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1922\/1617\/products\/Drappier-Rose-de-Saignee-Emperor-Champagne.jpg?v=1569212692"}},"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[]}],"images":["\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1922\/1617\/products\/Drappier-Rose-de-Saignee-Emperor-Champagne.jpg?v=1587727599"],"featured_image":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1922\/1617\/products\/Drappier-Rose-de-Saignee-Emperor-Champagne.jpg?v=1587727599","options":["Please select"],"media":[{"alt":"Drappier-Rose-de-Saignee-Emperor-Champagne","id":1580718653549,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.767,"height":737,"width":565,"src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1922\/1617\/products\/Drappier-Rose-de-Saignee-Emperor-Champagne.jpg?v=1569212692"},"aspect_ratio":0.767,"height":737,"media_type":"image","src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1922\/1617\/products\/Drappier-Rose-de-Saignee-Emperor-Champagne.jpg?v=1569212692","width":565}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e- One of the oldest and most prominent houses in Champagne with little to no sulphur across the range \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- Made using the maceration method and 100% pinot noir.

They are located in the small village of Urville in the Côte des Bar where Pinot Noir, the predominant grape variety, finds its purest expression and allows the production of very elegant, aromatic wines. With an annual production of some 1.5 million bottles, they are considerably larger than a small grower, but not quite of the size of the Grande Marques in and around Reims and Epernay. Drappier is one of the foremost producers in the region which is highly respected amongst its peers like Cédric Bouchard, Marie-Courtin, Vouette et Sorbée, and Jacques Lassaigne. They own 55 hectares of vineyards and use another 50 hectares under contract with other growers. A an interesting historical fact is that Charles de Gaulle (the Former Minister of the Armed Forces in France) was very fond of their Champagne and they named a cuvée after him. Amongst their range of excellent cuvées, they have a range including a ‘Sulphur free’, ‘Zero dosage’, and a ‘Blanc de blancs’ that contains a forgotten grape called Blanc Vrai.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFood suggestion\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cp field=\"recipename\" itemprop=\"name\"\u003eWe love the sheer juiciness and fruit drive in this wine with a little tannic grip, so we thought let's go with a seared tuna steak or any variation of duck you may like.\u003c\/p\u003e"}

Music plays a role in the aging of the wines as well—Loriot believes that its vibrations make a positive contribution to the texture and finesse of the wine as it ages, and he has installed speakers throughout his cellars. Along with the rebranding, he has renamed all of his cuvées as well, and the new collection comprises eight champagnes, grouped into three categories: Les Classiques, Les Mutines and Les Virtuoses.\" Peter Liem\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e"}

The house started out making still red wines in the former winemaking capital of Champagne, Aÿ and for many years resisted the sweeping sensation of making sparkling wine. The house to this day is focused on making it wine first before a champagne. This is in direct contrast to other houses that make acidic base wines purely for the purpose of making champagne.

Philipponnat is a house of outstanding quality from their entry level Royale Reserve Brut all the way through to their iconic Clos des Goisses vintages. This premium producer picks fruit with maximum ripeness and focus on pinot noir fruit with power. All this ripeness is balanced with a long, cool fermentation and some wines being blocked from malolactic fermentation whilst being fermented in oak barrels. Carefully blending of base wines complete the work of art on non-vintage cuvees with approximately 30% of reserve wines being added.\u003cbr\u003e Reserve wines are aged in a perpetual solera system with new wines being added to older wines every year continuously adding more complexity and depth to young cuvees. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003eFood Suggestion\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis champagne was paired at Philipponnat with a guest chef. His dish, translated was, prawns flambeed in armagnac with a coral sauce slightly infused with star anise. The pairing was a sensation.

After his father’s untimely death in 1962, he took over the reins and became the energy and entrepreneurial spirit behind the rise and success of the house. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHenriot have their eyes firmly set on what they describe as ‘craftsman luxury’.
