Sparkling wine. Villers-Marmery, Champagne, France. Organic. Chardonnay, Pinot Noir. "The new release of Sadi Malot Rosé Nature is composed of a blend of eighty-three percent chardonnay from Villers-Marmery and seventeen percent pinot noir, which is all still red wine from the families vineyards in Verzy. It is aged for five full years sur latte and was disgorged in July of 2019, making this wine from the base year of 2013. The wine is a fine salmon color and offers up a refined and complex nose of rhubarb, strawberries, chalky soil tones, a touch of cinnamon and rose petals. On the palate the wine is bright, full-bodied, focused and beautifully balanced, with the five years aging sur latte nicely allowing the acids to relax. The wine has a fine core, good soil signature, frothy mousse and lovely length and grip on the complex finish. This has a nice touch of backend vinosity to it from the fairly high percentage of still red wine in the blend, but it is also light on its feet and is easily drunk on its own as an aperitif. Fine juice. 2020-2035." — 91 Points, John Gilman, View From The Cellar #87 (May/June 2020)
