Essi Avellan: Deep cherry-hued rosé color. Very strong nose, all about red berries and tutti-frutti. Too extracted to show Champagne rosé typicity. Approaching Beaujolais. Clean and crisp, though. 10

Andrew Jefford: Quite a deep rosé color here; translucent cherry red. Very Pinot-esque, like sniffing a village Chambolle from high up on the hill. Great! And that is absolutely what the palate gives you, too; this is brimming with fresh yet developed Pinot fruit and presumably summarizes a generous Champagne Pinotplace. It might not do for the purists, but I’d enjoy it a lot. 16

Tom Stevenson: The color of this rose is verging on clairet with a hint of brick brown. The nose is dominated by milk-powder malolactic, which I suspect comes from the red wine, if indeed that is how it was made. 14.5
