NICOLAS MAILLART ROSÉ GRAND CRU CHAMPAGNE
Tasting Notes
It has a salmon-pink colour with fine lingering beads. Creamy mousse. On the nose, it has a pronounced intensity with ripe red fruits and forest floor. On the
palate, it has initially a wonderful fresh and vinous impact followed by a great finesse. It has a very long finish.
Winery
The history of the family can be traced back to 1753, now with the ninth generation Nicolas continues to the tradition of the house. Nicolas returned in 2003 after completing his studies in engineering and oenology. He is now in charge of the almost three hundred years old tradition and maintains the house philosophy of
bringing our the full potential of the Champagne terrors in their wines.
