Domaine Collet - Empreinte de Terroir Brut Rosé
3*Coup de Coeur
Hachette
" This salmon-pink wine with coppery highlights is a blend of 57% macerated Pinot Noir and 43% Chardonnay, partially vinified in oak barrels. The result is an intense and subtle palette of rare complexity: redcurrant, blackcurrant, brandied fruit, candied citrus, rhubarb, and a hint of menthol meet above the glass. Raspberry and candied fruit are accompanied by roasted wood notes on the palate, which is structured, harmonious, and long, with a tangy finish. A superb rosé that will hold its own at the table.

In the heart of the Côte de Sézanne, brothers Vincent, Thomas, and Florent Collet have given new impetus to the family estate since the beginning of this century, on 15 plots located around Fontaine-Denis. The wines are well-made, and the Anthime range, which boasts oak aging, stands out from the crowd.

About wine:
This salmon pink rosé with coppery highlights blends 57% macerated Pinot Noir and 43% Chardonnay partially vinified in oak barrels.

About the estate:
At the beginning of the 20th century, the Collet family sold their grapes to wine merchants. René Collet, a cooperative member, launched his champagne in 1973. His three sons, Thomas, Vincent, and Florent, joined the business between 2001 and 2011 and decided to produce their own vintages. They have 5 hectares of vines in the Sézanne region.

About the estate:
The story of Domaine Collet is a beautiful one: born into a modest family of winegrowers and farmers in Fontaine-Denis, René Collet simply decided to create his own brand in 1973. With the help of a large cooperative, he developed the estate by acquiring and planting Chardonnay and Pinot Noir vines, ideally located in the Fontaine-Denis area. The early 2000s brought changes: two of Mr. Collet's three sons joined the company, and a new winery and barrel cellar were built.
