Perrier-Jouët : Belle Epoque Rosé 2014

Full bottle 1,597 g. Super-pale pink – it looks more like a white wine. Very biscuity and a little whisper of smoke on the finish. Clearly a wine that has done some serious time on lees – dense, rich shortbread, creamy sweetness but the fruit is massively understated. The wine as a whole is a master of understatement. Although, as if to make up for it, the bubbles are big and generous! (TC)
