Full maceration. Grand Cru Ambonnay. Zero compromise.

Dawn-Driven · Macération · Vinous Rosé
Producer
Eric Rodez is a former Krug cellarmaster who returned to his family's Grand Cru Ambonnay vineyards to make wine his way. His maceration rosé is one of the most ambitious bottlings in his range — deliberately structured, deliberately complex, and deliberately unlike most Rosé Champagne.
🌅 Dawn· ✨ Mystic
Dawn primary — the craft and deliberateness of Rodez's maceration approach is visible in every aspect of this wine. The tannin management alone reflects years of accumulated skill. Mystic secondary — full maceration is a transformative technique that produces something categorically different from conventionally made Rosé Champagne.
Tasting note
La Revue du Vin de France: 'The macerated rosé stands out for its elegant structure and remarkable tannin management: a deep, masterful juice.' Rodez's assembly of macerated Pinot Noir and Chardonnay for elegance. Average assembly including 8-10 years of reserve wine. Full body, great vinosity, and the kind of finish that reminds you why Rosé Champagne can be serious.

    Producer notes: "Champagne with heart, this cuvee is full of generosity, combining power, great vinosity and finesse. Fruit from blending of macerated wines for the fullness, and Chardonnay for elegance and freshness. Average assembly is from 50-55% of reserve wines and 80% of wines produced in small barrels. Colour marked by the maceration of Pinot Noir. The nose is complex, powerful, long, marked by “red berries”. The palate is smooth, powerful, with hints of subtle oak."

    Tamlyn Currin of JancisRobinson.com: “Bright coral pink and it smells patisserie-seductive, like a white-chocolate macaron. But it's dry, serious and not at all playful – this is a serious rosé. It feels like scrunched-up taffeta, and tastes of blood-orange, bruised rose hips and autumn leaves. Fine and compact with a long, clinging finish, taut as a bowstring.”
