Champagne Geoffroy Rose de Saignee 1er Cru Brut NV

The ruby red hue of this Rosé de Saignée is a pleasure for the eyes. The nose of this Champagne is a spring bouquet: rose, wild strawberry, raspberry and later blackberry, combine perfectly to offer the taster aromas, which would be unexpected in a normal rosé Champagne. The mouth follows on from the nose, with the structure of the Pinot Noir leaving a convincing vinosity at the finish. By virtue of its freshness, this Rosé de Saignée Champagne is best enjoyed young to take full advantage of the aromas of small, fresh and crisp red berries.

Critical Acclaim

93 Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate

Derived from the 2013 vintage and disgorged in March 2019, the latest release of Geoffroy’s NV Extra-Brut Rosé de Saignée Blanc de Rose is showing nicely, offering up scents of crisp apple, rye toast, red berries and cherries. Medium to full-bodied, chiseled and precise, it’s seamless and textural, with a notably elegant, fine-boned profile by the standards of this habitually vinous, broad-shouldered cuvée.
