A wonderfully fresh nose combines notes of just sliced green apple and citrus confit with those of essence of dried flowers and a whisper of exotic tea
dark berry and kirsch aromas trimmed in plenty of earth character
indeed the mouthfeel of the middle weight flavors is chiseled though the tannins shaping the short finish are grippy and serrated
the copious dry extract should permit this to be enjoyed after only 5-ish or so years of cellaring
I have always liked what Fichet does with the wine and in 2002
Henri Giraud, Fut de Chene MV Rose Brut other_regions_italy A wonderfully fresh nose combinesBased on the 2018 vintage, the NV A Grand Cru Ft de Chne Brut MV Ros reveals enticing aromas of pastry, peony, red berries, blood orange and menthol. Medium to full bodied, it is both elegant and elegantly tannic, with a layered and tense structure supported by bright acidity and a long, ethereal finish. This blend consists of 80% Pinot Noir (with 6% as red wine) and 20% Chardonnay, and it was disgorged in February 2023.
