NC- Dumangin Le Rosé Champagne

The Dumangin family can be traced back to working in the vineyards since the 1650's. Champagne Dumangin was created by Hippolyte Dumangin in the 1890s in the 1er Cru village of Chigny-les-Roses. Jacky Dumangin, three generations later, perfected the characteristically feminine Premier Cru champagne range. His son, Gilles Dumangin, 5th generation of successful winemakers, expanded the Domaine by introducing several high-end cuvees that helped position his Domaine.

The installations for pressing and making the wines have been awarded the quality label by the CIVC. His press of 2000Kg combines modernism and tradition and is one of only two made of this type in the world. It crushes the grapes ever so delicately, with less pressure and more respect for the grapes, adhering to the family philosophy of never "stressing" the grapes at any point in the production process. Further, Gilles Dumangin is one of the few producers in Champagne who utilizes enamel tanks in which the porosity maintains a signature yeast component cuvee after cuvée.

Experience delicate bubbles and an elegant effervescence. Inviting aromas of wild strawberries, rose petals, and raspberry. The palate unfolds with a generous and juicy character, interwoven with the essence of red berries, hints of dry biscuit, and a touch of crisp acidity. The finale is wonderfully refreshing and vibrant, boasting superb length and precision that lingers on the palate.

Blend: 49% Chardonnay, 38% Pinot Noir, and 13% Pinot Meunier
