Gaston Chiquet Premier Cru Brut Rose, Champagne, France NV Italy 94 pts VinousThe NV Brut Ros (2020 base) is stellar. Lifted floral and savory accents meld into a core of punchy red toned fruit. Cranberry, white pepper, mint, crushed rocks and blood orange build into the nervy, resonant finish. The Ros is light in color and finessed, but also has tons of richness, much of that coming from the 18% still Pinot in the blend. Disgorged: March, 2022. 92 Pts Vinous
