This ros draws its substance and fruitiness from a short maceration of the juice with the grape skins.This very rare method in Champagne gives more vinous and complex ross dedicated to the table.

Reviews:

• Wine Advocate: The NV Ros de Saigne Extra-Brut Les Rosiers is 100% barrel-fermented and unfiltered Pinot Noir. It’s sourced from old vines that were planted in 1967 and 1968, and used for red wines that were sold to other Champagne houses. It has a garnet red color and offers floral and fruity aromas, a potpourri of licorice, cherries, violas and red berries. Very elegant and vinous on the palate, this is a well structured Ros Champagne with a lovely Pinot character in the finish that displays very delicate red fruit and floral aromas also in the finish. This lovely Ros drinks like a classic Pinot with bubbles. Good length and minerality here. No malolactic fermentation.

Producer Information

In 1743, the Grumier family was already living in Venteuil and growing vines. The generations succeeded one another as history unfolded, and it was in 1928 that Amand Grumier decided to keep his harvest and make his first Champagne.His wife Aline helped and supported him in this venture which few vintners dared to try in those difficult times for winegrowers. When his son Maurice came back from the war in 1945, he took over the vineyard and turned it into a prosperous business. He added his first name to the brand Maurice Grumier and we still use this brand name today.Maurice died in an accident in 1968, leaving Guy and his wife Franoise to run the vineyard. In the thirty years that followed, they expanded the domain and modernised it, developing sales while constantly seeking the highest quality for their products. In 1999, Fabien graduated from viticultural college and joined them on the estate. In 2005 his wife Helne arrived at the vineyard. Together they developed new cuvees and progressively turned to exporting some of their Champagnes to Italy, Switzerland, Japan, etc.
