"An appealing rose Champagne, with a chalky overtone and a fine, creamy bead, plus snappy acidity framing flavors of ripe raspberry, peach skin, blood orange sorbet and pickled ginger. Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. Disgorged January 2024. 200 cases imported. - AN"

"A medium pink color, the NV Champagne Grand Cru Bouzy Les Terres Roses XX Extra Brut is based on the 2020 vintage and spent 10 months on the lees in fût, followed by 30 months in the crayères. The blend is 64% Chardonnay and 36% Pinot Noir, with 5% of that Bouzy rouge. The nose is fruity and inviting, and the wine speaks to the ease and delightful fruit of the 2020 vintage, with its fruity and floral character, medium body, and refined Pinot Noir mousse. The mousse has a delicate peppery spice that enhances the prettiness and floral quality of the fruit, with cherry blossoms and delicate pastry notes. Drink 2025-2035. I love where this is now, and although it should have no problem drinking well for another ten years, why wait?"

"The NV (2020) Extra Brut Les Terres Roses is gorgeous. Rich, creamy and expansive on the palate, the Terres Roses is so inviting. All the textural breadth of Bouzy comes through loud and clear. Cranberry, white pepper, slate, chalk, mint and dried herbs build slowly through the mid-palate and into the rich, resonant finish. This vinous, ample Rosé is a winner. The Terres Roses is 64% Chardonnay and 35% Pinot Noir, of which 5% is still red wine. Dosage is 2 grams per liter. Disgorged: November 2024."
