Champagne Rosé "Dame Jane" - Henri Giraud
€99.00
Tax included
"The NV Rosé Rose Dame-Jane is light and airy in the glass. Crushed flowers, sweet crushed berries, white pepper and mint are all beautifully lifted. Translucent and gracious, the Dame-Jane is quite a departure for a house that was previously known for rich, opulent Champagnes. The Dame-Jane is done with an 'Oeil de Perdrix' base in which Pinot is given a short time on the skins for added color and structure. Right before bottling, touches of Chardonnay and still Pinot are added to fine-tune the blend. The Dame-Jane is aged entirely in sandstone terracotta, an approach that works beautifully. " Antonio Galloni - Vinous
Henri Giraud's Champagne Dame-Jane is a Brut rosé produced with 70% Pinot Noir (of which 6% vinified in red) and 30% Chardonnay. The Pinot Noir vinified in red comes from an old cellar from the 50s in the Grand Cru village of Ay. Once the grapes have been harvested, the wine is vinified in terracotta amphorae. Dame-Jane is a "serious" Champagne Rosé, with a pale pink color with coppery reflections. The nose is intense and complex with elegant vinous notes that mix with hints of wild berries and floral notes. On the palate it is dry, with a fine perlage and an iconic mineral note that persists in the very long finish. Henri Giraud's Dame Jane is a structured champagne, which can accompany both fish and white meat dishes. It is excellent right away but can evolve for over 10 years after disgorgement (laser engraved above the label on the left). On the back label you will also find a QR which will allow you to access the wine analyses, which certify the absence of pesticides.
