Stunning. In an absolute perfect spot. Drinks like an elegant Blanc de Blanc with just a touch of Pinot aroma in the mix. Could go another 20 easily.

Lean red berries, flowers, crunchy yet delicious and quite dialed back than the Blanc de Blanc IMHO. Finish is beautiful. I still prefer the Blanc de Blanc Belle Époque to this.

Nov 9th, 2017Wanted my 200th Delectable French wine to be special. Belle Époque Rose Magnum. Stellar. What may have been left in the cellar to age on the lees for 10 years, the autolytic tones running through this are out of control, paired with the fresh red fruits from the dosage... very happy!

This threw me for a loop.
On opening it was a huge disappointment. Very closed up and not resembling Champagne in any way.
I thought it possibly was related to heat damage (didn’t get a chance to examine the cork).
Fast forward 48 hours - after being left open in the fridge and destined for cooking-wine it has gained so much energy and verve that it begs for another chance.
NR based on this bottle as I’ll need to re-visit.
