Veuve Clicquot is unusual in making their rose by blending a little still Pinot Noir wine with their wonderful “white” Champagne. The wine makers believe that the blending in of finished Pinot Noir wine adds more earthy, Pinot flavor to the wine, and a little welcome tannin.

“Veuve Clicquot has teamed up with designers L’Atelier LZC to create the Sakura Collection. (Sakura is Japanese for Cherry Blossom).
The Sakura Rosé design is inspired by the ephemeral beauty of cherry blossom and the Japanese tradition for spring “Sakura” parties.
The “jacket” envelops your bottle to ensure it is kept chilled for up to two hours."

This renowned and popular Brunello is made from 100% Sangiovese Grosso grapes hand harvested from the Altesino, Montosoli and Velona vineyards. Aged in large Slovenian barrels for three and a half years, Altesino Brunello is also refined in bottle for four months. The ruby red color of this wine tends toward garnet with age. The bouquet displays ample aromas of violet, wild berries, tobacco, chocolate and vanilla. On the palate, Altesino Brunello is rich, full-bodied and velvety.

“The Cabernet Sauvignon One Point Five Stags Leap. The dark ruby/purple-tinged 2006 offers delicious red currant and black cherry fruit interwoven with notions of loamy soil and spring flowers. It is an elegant, stylish effort to enjoy over the next 10-15 years.”-Wine Advocate

“Bottled in July, 2005, the saturated ruby/purple-colored 2003 exhibits a tightly-knit, but promising nose of mulberries, blackberries, cherries, and hints of new oak and truffles. This 60% Cabernet Sauvignon / 40% Merlot blend possesses a gorgeous texture as well as an expansive, exotic softness, and 13% alcohol (according to the proprietor, Madame Denise Gasqueton). Generous and rich, this high class, full-bodied wine will undoubtedly be more approachable than its closest spiritual sibling, the 1982.”

Robert Parker Rating: 94

“This classically-styled claret did not merit an outstanding rating because it lacks sufficient concentration to compete with the estate’s top vintages. However, it offers a dark ruby/plum color, nicely evolved notes of roasted herbs, sweet cherries and currants, and loamy earth, medium-weight, light to moderate tannin, and an elegant style. If it puts on weight over the next few years, it may deserve a slightly higher score. Anticipated maturity: now-2018.” —Robert Parker

These young wines are so beautiful, so sexy and so Burgundian. If the barrels at the Hospices are an accurate indication of what the 2005 vintage will deliver in general, we are in for some wonderful wines. The reds show ripe fruit, ripe tannins and wonderful harmony.

Winemaker Philippe Delarches style is determined completely by terroir. All of his wines are mineral-rich and complex. This plot of Corton-Charlegmagne produces mineral driven and steely Chardonnay with a bit of pepper and chalky notes in the finish.

“A delicious Champagne full of rose petal, wheat, cherry and citrus notes, all supported by a vivid acidity and chalky texture. An innate sense of power on a lightweight frame. Lengthy finish.” —The Wine Spectator

“Salmon-orange. Musky aromas of red berries, minerals, clove, horseradish and earth. Penetrating and vinous, with understated red berry flavors complicated by earth and spice notes. Intensely flavored but light on its feet. Finishes with superb, lingering fruit and noteworthy verve. A terrific, wine-like rose."
