François Seconde Grand Cru Brut Rosé Champagne

Description

[Though not the same bottling as reviewed by William Kelley, this will display a similar complexity and flavour profile.] Disgorged in June 2018, the NV Brut Grand Cru Rosé bursts from the glass with an inviting bouquet of rose petals, Griotte cherries, red apples and orange rind. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, broad and fleshy, with a ripe core of fruit, a youthfully frothy mousse and succulent acids, concluding with an expansive finish. This is a charming, fruit-driven rosé that's already showing well and might well support a somewhat lower dosage. Drink date: 2018-2028. (William Kelley,robertparker.com,April 30, 2019)
