Champagne Brut Rose 375ml, Jacques Copin

Producer: Jacques Copin (owner/grower) Wine: Champagne Brut Rose 375ml Varietals: 60% Pinot Noir, 25% Pinot Meunier, 15% Chardonnay from 3 Villages in the Marne Valley Veneuil, Vincelles, Vandieres Vinification: Mechanical tilage, cover crops between rows.  The viticulture is sustainable with plowing of the soil and limited addition of synthetic products. Harvest is manual followed by pneumatic pressing.  The partial fermentation is then kicked off at low-temperature in stainless steel tanks to obtain a off-dry wine with low alcohol content.  The wine is then lightly filtered to keep the yeasts.  The fermentation restarts naturally for a minimum of 2 months, and the overpressure created in the bottle stops any new fermentation of the grape.  The Disgorgement is done by decanting the bottle under pressure, with a sterile filtration. 6 g/L of residual sugar, aging for 36 months Tasting notes: The wine had a salmon color with a red hue and multiple columns of numerous tiny bubbles for
