Champagne Gardet Brut Rosé NV

Champagne, FranceGardet has been an active negociant in Champagne since 1895, based in the Aube's Chigny Les Roses. Their Brut Rosé is made from the same blend as their flagship Brut Tradition (40% pinot noir, 45% meunier, 10% chardonnay), but with 10% still pinot noir added for the colour. It spent up to 36 months on lees prior to disgorge with 8 g/L. Pouring a glowing orange / salmon hue, this opens with fresh yeast dough and bitter red apple, with a sharp acidity tuning this tart, and a cushy lees bed to soften. Gentle smoked stones and strawberry meringue work through the palate to a bitter orange finish. Bottled in clear glass, so be cautious of storage.Tasted: 25 June 2026Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
