Prince De Dulphey Rose 2005
Champagne's Thierry Lesne is renowned for his Grande Marque-rivalling special cuvees, but he knows too the huge 'sparkling' potential of Burgundy for quality and value.
Hence this tiny volume, skilfully crafted parcel of superb sparkling rose. ''Cremant de Bourgogne is a heavenly sparkling wine, a very close cousin of Champagne ...
the only difference is the price.'' The Mail on Sunday Prince de Dulphey is made in the finest traditions of Champagne rose from 100% Pinot Noir (just like Taittinger and Laurent Perrier), and the no-expense-spared Methode Traditionnelle technique used by all top Champagne houses. Lovely toasty aromas with ripe, fresh strawberries.
Very elegant in the mouth with creamy Summer fruits, plenty of Champagne-style tiny bubbles, and a seductively long, lingering finish.
The ideal aperitif.
Vendor: Laithwaites
