Vincent Laval Rosé Cumières Premier Cru Brut Nature 2020

Wine description for Vincent Laval Rosé Cumières Premier Cru Brut Nature 2020 from Georges Laval

Colour & appearance

An elegant, bluish rosé with a fine, persistent mousseux that visually announces Georges Laval's precision craftsmanship.

Nose

This champagne redefines complexity. The nose reveals a fascinating mélange of cool, earthy minerals and stony notes, interspersed with precise aromas of ripe Barberries and Cranberries. Graphite and subtle smoke lend the bouquet an almost Burgundian depth, while the maceration notes of the Pinot Noir provide structural clarity.

Palate

The full power of this Brut Nature unfolds on the palate. A demanding, crystalline acidity structure carries flavours of Wild berries, Sour cherries and Blood oranges, complemented by the freshness of a sliced Apples. The maceration is reflected in fine tannins that give the wine structure and length. An electrifying minerality pervades the entire flavour and underlines the origin from the chalky soils of Cumières.

General information

Six months of ageing in used barrels and a year and a half sur lattes have given this champagne depth and complexity. The disgorgement without dosage on 14 November 2022 allows the pure fruit and minerality to come to the fore unadulterated.

Food pairing suggestions

Perfect for Scallops and wild prawns with ras el hanout, Duck breast stuffed with porcini mushrooms with polenta or Persian rice with barberries and pomegranate. The versatility reflects the complexity of the wine.

Special features

A champagne that benefits from a carafe and impressively demonstrates the mastery of the Laval family. A rosé with the character of an event and a worthy continuation of the House's tradition.
