Charles Heidsieck Vintage Rose 2012

A magnificent coppery golden robe offers glints of tangerine with a delicate, dynamic effervescence. The initial nose is an invitation to indulgence with ripe fruit and toasted, smoky notes reminiscent of the wine's native mineral soil, giving way to a riot of fruity notes of pomegranate, blackthorn, quince, and fresh almonds with a touch of blueberry. The attack is frank with abundant freshness, signature of its noble composition. 'The mid-palate brings notes of quince, white pepper, and vineyard peaches. With a well-balanced tannic structure, the finish is silky.
