"Benoît Marguet makes a series of “village-named” bottlings, with some made from purchased fruit (such as his Mesnil cuvée) and others from his own, estate vineyards, as is the case with this brilliant bottle of vintage Rosé. The wine is comprised of a cépages of eighty-one percent chardonnay and nineteen percent pinot noir and was disgorged in March of 2019. The wine is simply stunning on the nose, soaring from the glass in a mix of melon, white cherries, tangerine, chalky soil tones, a touch of caraway seed, dried flowers and just a hint of the smokiness that will come with further bottle age. On the palate the wine is pure, full-bodied, focused and shows off gorgeous mid-palate depth, with seamless balance, pinpoint bubbles and stunning length and grip on the complex and utterly refined finish. This is the best vintage-dated Rosé I have tasted from Monsieur Marguet since the exquisite 2009 version! Do not miss it! (Drink between 2019-2050)" |
