Vallée de la Marne, Champagne, France
Jerome Prevost Champagne is hard to find in Australia but his Rose is a rare beast indeed. None available this year for example. The year of harvest is found in the fine print beginning "LC". Colour is Salmon pink with a tinge of Bronze. Has the finest bead I have ever seen. Notes of strawberries, pepper and minerals. A fine wine in every sense of the word - an exercise in perfectly executed restraint. 100% Pinot Meunière. Most importantly my wife loved it on her Birthday !!
