{"product_id":"henri-dosnon-brut-rose-champagne-nv-750ml","title":"Henri Dosnon Brut Rosé Champagne NV 750ml","description":"\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe Côte des Bar, in the Aube at the southern end of Champagne, is a world away from the chalk of Reims and Épernay: rolling hills, wheat fields, and limestone soils that resemble Chablis more than the Montagne de Reims. It was for decades known as a source of “filler” grapes, and it’s now one of Champagne’s most exciting regions, led by young growers influenced by Burgundy. Davy Dosnon, who grew up in the village of Lingey, trained in viticulture and worked in top Burgundy houses before returning home, and he now runs a small artisan cellar in Avirey-Lingey, practicing sustainable viticulture and making what he calls non-manipulated wines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eHenri Dosnon is his friendly, value-driven label, named for his family, using fruit from vineyards his ancestors once owned and from purchased grapes. The Brut Rosé is 90% Pinot Noir and 10% Chardonnay, hand-harvested, pressed, and fermented in tank, then aged in bottle for 20 months before release and finished with a dosage of 10 g\/L, a touch higher than the house’s other cuvées. It’s 12% ABV.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe Pinot Noir-heavy blend and the dosage make a red-fruited, fleshy, soft rosé. Dan Dawson’s Wine Advisor (88.5) describes it this way: “The dosage plus the Pinot Noir extraction makes for a red-berry heavy, fruity, off-dry sensation that is delicious and not everyone’s first choice of Champagne style. Get wild red cherries, raspberries, cranberry nut bread, blood oranges and then toasted pie crust, nutmeg and black licorice on the end. This soft, fleshy, lush style is quite different than the other Dosnon Champagnes.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eCritics have rated it consistently well. Vinous’s Josh Raynolds scored it 93: “Light, bright orange. Redcurrant, orange zest, jasmine and a hint of dusty minerals on the seductively perfumed nose. Juicy, vibrant and taut, offering powerful, spice- and mineral-accented flavors of red berries and candied orange peel. Silky and expansive on a finish resounding with orange and mineral notes.” Wine Spectator has scored it 92: “A fresh and expressive rosé Champagne, offering a lively range of candied pink grapefruit peel, blood orange, pickled ginger and biscuit flavors set on a fine, chalky mousse. Offers a long, minerally finish,” and 90 in another tasting: “A creamy rosé Champagne, with lively, lightly juicy acidity framing the flavors of wild strawberry, lemon pastry, cream and candied ginger. Aromatic hints of spice and dried thyme show on the finish.” Wilfred Wong of Wine.com scored it 91: “delicate and refined,” with “aromas and flavors of sandalwood, light spices, dried earth, and berries.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eIt’s a pretty, perfumed, red-berry rosé Champagne at a very friendly price, a good fit for a party, a brunch, a gift, or a seafood dinner. Serve it at 8-10°C, with salmon and avocado handrolls, charcuterie, grilled shrimp, and strawberry desserts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3 dir=\"ltr\" aria-level=\"4\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrigins \u0026amp; Craftsmanship\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eHenri Dosnon Brut Rosé is produced by Champagne Dosnon (Davy Dosnon) in Avirey-Lingey, Côte des Bar, Champagne, France, a blend of 90% Pinot Noir and 10% Chardonnay, hand-harvested, pressed, and fermented in tank, aged 20 months in bottle before release.
