A touch of black pepper spice and a solid dose of structural tannins round out the wine

Not showing quite as well as it did at a château vertical last year

Concentrated and fragrant

Geoffroy Rose de Saignee Premier Cru Brut, Champagne, France NV 375ml Domaine Karanika fruit-driven palateDerived from the 2013 vintage and disgorged in March 2019, the latest release of Geoffroy's NV Extra Brut Ros de Saigne Blanc de Rose is showing nicely, offering up scents of crisp apple, rye toast, red berries and cherries. Medium to full bodied, chiseled and precise, it's seamless and textural, with a notably elegant, fine boned profile by the standards of this habitually vinous, broad shouldered cuve. 93 Pts Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
