Sip Champagnes
Rosé Tasting 3 Pack
Bottles individually purchased: £190
Rosé is one of the most difficult expressions in the world of Champagne. For years it has been dominated by just a few names with very specific styles. Slowly but surely though the grower world has cottoned on to how good they can be and their Champagnes are now as diverse, challenging and engaging as you might imagine!
At Sip, we pride ourselves on, not only sifting through the silt to find the gold, but also giving you the opportunity to truly examine all the facets that make a great rosé. From fresh, light fruity wines, to rich, vinous treats we have something for everyone in this collection.
With a great saving over buying the bottles independently, this Rosé Tasting 3 pack includes two very different blends plus a superb saignée Pinot Noir. It remains the most cost-effective way to experience the delights of Champagne Rosé.
Jean-Philippe Trousset Rosé Extra Brut
A wonderfully fresh example that shows it's Chardonnay dominance – 46% Chardonnay, 30% Pinot Noir, 18% Meunier, (6% red wine) – the palate delivers juicy fruit with just enough grip to keep you attention. As it opens it shows a good little autolytic play, sweetness and length. On the finish you feel the texture and a lovely bitter note that balances the sugar really nicely.
Louis Brochet Rosé Millésime 2019
Another rose made through addition, this is, however, deeper and more Pinot focussed this time. Coming from the powerful 2019 vintage, this wine blends 62% Pinot Noir, 33% Chardonnay and 5% red wine from 'Mont Benoit' to reveal a palate full of rose pips, a touch of clementine and toast, with great length and weight of fruit.
Rousseaux Batteux 'Les Champs Brûlés' Rosé de Saignée
We finish the set with a beautiful saignée from the Grand Cru village of Verzy. Made from a single vineyard 'Les Champs Brûlés' on the upper reaches of the village, the Pinot grapes are picked at optimum maturity and undergo 24hr maceration before spending 6 months in oak barrels. The palate is incredibly rich and the oak adds a supple round element that works so well. Certainly one for food!
