Each Grand Vintage Rosé is unique and expresses the Moët & Chandon Cellar Master’s personal interpretation of the year. The Grand Vintage Rosé 2013 has a truly unique character and is the 44th vintage rosé in the House’s history.
Moët & Chandon Grand Vintage Rosé 2013 is a champagne marked by a late harvest. It encapsulates a year of waiting, a year of anticipation. The season shines through in its flavours and aromas, offering a generous nose, spicy fruitiness and a chiselled mouthfeel expressed through autumnal notes.
TASTING NOTES
Colour tinged with orange
A radiant, light pink hue with hints of orange.
Generous bouquet
The initial aromas are sweet, tinged with a mixture of wild strawberries, raspberries and pomegranate seeds. It then develops a touch of freshness with hints of blood orange and star fruit. Black pepper, dark chocolate, cinnamon, dried flowers and new leather round off the bouquet.
BLEND
Moët & Chandon Grand Vintage 2013 Rosé is thus an unexpectedly complementary expression of a year that is widely known for its Chardonnays. It is 35% Chardonnay – a rather high proportion for a rosé, which typically contains more Pinot Noir. After 7 years in the cellars, it reveals a truly unique character.
