The 2014 Rare Collection Blanc de Blancs is 100% Chardonnay, sourced from four villages (Avize, Cramant, Oger and Le Mesnil-sur-Oger), and reveals a delicate, perfumed bouquet of ripe orchard fruits, almonds, lemon oil and spices. Medium to full-bodied, delicate and vinous, it's broad and dense with a fleshy core of fruit and a delicate, ethereal mousse. Matured for eight years on the lees, followed by 12 months after disgorgement, this rendition perfectly captures the house style.

Plenty of freshness and energy to this silky rosé Champagne. Aromas of strawberries, orange peel, peaches and spiced bread follow through to a creamy, fine and medium-bodied palate. Soft bubbles. Chalky minerality coming through at the end. 92% chardonnay and 8% pinot noir red wine. Drink or hold.
