Drappier - Brut Rosé Champagne Grande Sendrée 2010 (750ml)
Jeb Dunnuck: 94 Points
The 2010 Champagne Grande Sendrée Rosé is 20% Chardonnay and 80% saignée method Pinot Noir that spent ten years on the lees. Pale salmon-hued with a hint of copper, the nose is elegant and fresh, with ripe stone fruit, apricot, peach, strawberry, and fresh flowers. The palate is dry and structured, with citrus pith and grapefruit, and its tannic grip makes this a gastronomic style to have at the table. Drink 2023-2033.
Wine Spectator: 94 Points
Expressive notes of steeped raspberry and cherry fruit pull you into the glass of this vivacious rosé Champagne, riding the satiny mousse and layered with accents of mandarin orange peel, dried thyme and biscuit. A vinous version, with the finely knit flavors underscored by a streak of tangy mineral that drives through the spiced finish. Drink now through 2030
