Since 1696, 12 generations of winemakers, seven hectares
of vineyards - 6 Pinot Noir, 1 Chardonnay - from Aÿ, Grand Cru village of the
valley of the Marne, for a production about 50 thousand bottles. These, shortly,
the numbers of the proprietaire récoltant
Gâtinois.
I visited the company last year, obtaining good
impression, so many confirmations, tasting the whole range (some of which I
knew) and coming away with a considerable purchase.
This is rosé
d'assemblage - 85 units of Pinot Noir, 15 Chardonnay, 24 months on the lees
- which salmon dark vision, anticipates, clearly and unambiguously, the weight
of the black grapes.
I find the freshness of crisp spicy hiting and
sculpting the nostrils, followed by the inevitable red fruits - orange and pomegranate,
bitter orange and lychee - with a strong component of mineral salt that, step
by step, assumes more and more personality.
The taste preserves, with clarity, the olfactory lexicon,
telling wealth of material, adorned by fruitiness and good balance between
power and aromatic repertoire. Very convincing the merger between fruity, spices
and minerality.
Elegant and vertical sip, structured, with medium
persistence.
