Brut Champagne Blend Rosé 2008
#AgedWineTuesday
HURRICANE PARTY
Pale salmon in color.
Light nose of citrus, strawberries, earth, light herbs and minerals.
Medium plus in body with medium plus acidity and small bubbles.
Dry on the palate with raspberries, light cherries, limes, green apples, light grapefruits, minerals and herbs.
Long finish with limes and light almonds.
This is a delicious Rosé Champagne. Nicely balanced with a nice mouthfeel.
This 16 year old is showing nice complexity at this point. Feels still young and very fresh. Will continue to age nicely in the next 10 years.
I've had this vintage a few times before, and it is very consistent.
A delicious Champagne that’s perfect for sipping on its own. Will also pair nicely with fresh seafood.
12.5% alcohol by volume.

Clos des Goisses Brut Champagne Blend
Again slightly deeper colour . Quite rich and ripe on the nose with brioche , baked apple , lemon peel , touch of honeysuckle. On the palate more baked apple , lemon peel , ginger . Quite rich and decadent almost , but balanced acidity , creamy texture . Buttered pastry and lemon tart . Good ginger tinged finish . This will need more time than the Leon , quite dense and rich . Better in 5-8 years and will last well a further 10 — a month ago

Sipping Fine Wine
In 1829, Champagne Bollinger introduced an instantly recognizable, dry, toasty style that has been coveted ever since. Six generations of the Bollinger family have maintained that trademark style, and still owned and managed by the same family since it was founded. Gold color with a nose of fruit and baking spices. On the palate apple and peach, toasty notes with great bubble flow. Long crisp finish ending with yeasty mineral tones. Nice! — 19 days ago
