Champagne Brice - Bouzy Rosé Grand Cru 2012 - Extra Brut

90/100

Gilbert & Gaillard

“A deep orange-pink color. A ripe, very pleasant nose with notes of red berries, orange peel, and biscuit. On the palate, a very straightforward, full-bodied rosé with lovely aromatic precision and plenty of freshness. The finish features citrus and sweet spices.” (Gilbert & Gaillard 2018)

About the estate:

Descended from a line of winemakers dating back to the 17th century, Rémi and Jean-René Brice cultivate the family’s 12-hectare vineyard. With the support of Christophe Constant, oenologist and head of production, they craft champagnes rooted in the terroir of Bouzy, a Grand Cru appellation.
