Champagne Eric Rodez Ambonnay Rose Grand Cru
Champagne Eric Rodez Ambonnay Rosé Grand Cru is a prestige sparkling wine from the United States of France, specifically from the Grand Cru village of Ambonnay. The estate is led by eighth-generation winemaker Eric Rodez, who previously worked as an oenologist at Champagne Krug and now manages the domaine alongside his son, Mickaël. Their winemaking philosophy is deeply rooted in biodynamic viticulture and a complex blending process that often utilizes a high percentage of reserve wines aged in small oak barrels.
Wine Description
This rosé typically displays a delicate salmon or pale copper colour with a fine, persistent effervescence. The sensory profile is highly nuanced and reflects a sophisticated blending technique:
The nose is expressive and elegant, featuring aromas of wild strawberries, raspberries, and red currants, alongside complex notes of brioche, dried rose petals, and a hint of spice.
On the palate, the wine is vinous and structured, delivering a harmonious balance of fresh red fruit flavours and savoury, yeasty undertones.
The body is medium to full with a creamy texture and a vibrant acidity that provides excellent lift and energy.
The finish is long, clean, and mineral-driven, characteristic of the chalky Ambonnay terroir. The varietal composition is a unique blend of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, with a portion of the Pinot Noir added as still red wine to achieve the desired hue and structure. This cuvée is primarily aged in oak barrels and is produced following biodynamic and organic principles. It typically possesses an alcohol content of 12% to 12.5% ABV.
Food Pairing
The structured and gastronomic nature of this rosé makes it an ideal partner for a wide range of sophisticated dishes. It pairs exceptionally well with:
Smoked salmon, lobster, or grilled prawns with a light citrus dressing.
Roasted poultry, such as duck breast with a red berry reduction, or herb-crusted veal.
Charcuterie boards featuring premium cured meats and aged Comté cheese.
Light fruit-based desserts, particularly those featuring fresh berries or a subtle spice component.
