Brut Rosé Champagne Blend

Slightly faded. Pale wild strawberry, tea, salinity. Fine mousse. Pretty

Annual Big Taste of Fort Worth was last night. Huge selection of wines, but I’m just highlighting my favorites.

Never had their rosé before...delicious! This sucker is crisp and dialed in on the palate. Lots of rhubarb tart, Fuji apple, fleshy red fruit with a wonderful acidic finish. This will age nicely. It also paired beautifully with crisp quail legs!

I’ve avoided this Rosé Champagne from Veuve Clicquot like the plague. However, time to try it.

It’s classic Rosé style but, light all the way around. It’s quaffable but, at this price point, I’m not giving up my BSR, Ruinart, Drappier etc.. There simply is no wow factor here. For me, all of their cuvées just don’t deliver the quality like other producers in and around their price points.

However, they have a beautiful property and amazing caves.

1979 Veuve Clicquot Cave Privee Rose. Red raspberries and cream, earthy/black truffle, a touch of savory herbs. Delicious!!

Hate yellow label but VC's Rose is enjoyable.

Does it matter where I'm at or who I'm with? This is VCP!🥂🥂🥂🍾🍾🍾
