- Now wonderful to drink
- A top year for Comtes
The Comtes de Champagne Rose consists largely of Pinot Noir. The 2005 in magnum is in a good drinking window now combining a rich vinous palate with red fruit and excellent freshness. Richard Juhlin rates it 94(93).
Antonio Galloni vinous 95 ... Quite deep and almost Burgundian on the nose, it is vibrant and beautifully definded, with red cherries, bergamot and crushed stones in the background. Likewise, the palate has more weight and depth than other Roses. With dark cherries and hints of white chocolate and nutmeg, lovely tension and grip on the finish. It represents everything I adore about Rose Champagne, and it is drinking perfectly at present (March 2023)
