L-B's is vinous and an extremely compelling wine (like all of their Champers to me), and Vesselle's is a little more lacy and delicate, but very delicious and far from an afterthought like many roses--I far prefer their Oeuil de Perdrix to their Brut Reserve.<BR/><BR/>I'm thirsty. Time to find my L-B Blanc de Blancs.Martyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15215661060712573435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3799854524070158890.post-23980336143943024992008-09-13T07:28:00.000-04:002008-09-13T07:28:00.000-04:00yes.. maybe that it.. good postyes.. maybe that it..<BR/><BR/> good postAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3799854524070158890.post-77566202342363279242008-09-12T20:32:00.000-04:002008-09-12T20:32:00.000-04:00ditto Jean Vesselle-- rose champagnes are like che...ditto Jean Vesselle-- rose champagnes are like cherry pie crust, and the magnum bottles are even betterDebra Morganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07124429837785294567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3799854524070158890.post-58865462777198623662008-09-12T15:33:00.000-04:002008-09-12T15:33:00.000-04:00I love Geoffroy's rosé too.

The 2003 blends meunier with a little pinot noir. Both are terrific, although I haven't tasted the 2003 yet with dosage, which should only be a couple of grams or so. (I tasted it à la volée back at the beginning of the year.) If you ever have the good fortune to purchase Vouette et Sorbée's Saignée de Sorbée, it's right up your alley. Awesome wine. There are several wines I like that are saignées blended with a little chardonnay for extra finesse -- Vilmart's Grand Cellier Rubis, for example, is one of my favorite rosés in all of Champagne (saignée + 40% chard). Do you like Aubry's Sablé Rosé? I love that stuff: it's actually both a saignée and a blend. About 60% of a very light saignée, plus one to two percent red wine and then the rest chardonnay, bottled with four bars of pressure instead of six. Utterly weird and completely delicious.Peter Liemhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07849691624742817468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3799854524070158890.post-3066428433928046992008-09-12T13:57:00.000-04:002008-09-12T13:57:00.000-04:00The rose of Larmandier-Bernier in Vertus immediate...The rose of Larmandier-Bernier in Vertus immediately springs to mind. If the Goeffroy is orange, the most recent disgorgement of this wine is very deep salmon-pink, almost red, with body to match. Also, the Jean Vesselle "Oeuil de Perdrix." Named for the color, which supposedly is akin the to that of a partridge's eye. Whether true or not, it's a brilliant rose.Aaronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07120090489401623043noreply@blogger.com
