Tasting Notes
Clouet family is a family of winemakers whose origins, as they say, "got lost in the mists of time". Its founder was a printer in the Versailles court of Louis XV and for several generations, their descendants continued this work. This peculiar style " Ancien Regime" on their labels is a tribute to the founder of the house. It took more than two centuries and several generations of Clouet to get plots of vines in the terroir of Bouzy, which remain in the hands of the family of its founder. Bouzy is situated in the southern part of the Mountain of Reims.
The rose Champagne has lively, pink bubbles. Excellent deep colour and a beautiful nose filled with strawberry, raspberry and almonds. On the palate the champagne is creamy and fruity, excellent with both food and as an aperitif on that special night. Outstanding rose!! 92/100 Stephen Tanzer.
Pairs well with
Meaty and Oily Fish
