Assembly
An exceptional year that has produced a lively and generous wine
La Grande Année Rosé 2018 is a blend of 19 crus, mainly from Verzenay, Aÿ, and Mareuil-sur-Aÿ for the 67% Pinot Noir, and Chouilly and Cuis for the 33% Chardonnay. The blend includes 5% red wine from the Côte aux Enfants plot.
Fermentation takes place entirely in oak barrels and maturation occurs under cork, with aging in the cellar lasting more than twice as long as required by the appellation rules. The dosage is moderate, at 7 grams per liter.
