Grape(s): 100% Pinot Meunier
Tasting Notes: The Aurore & Florian Laval Champagne Rosé de Meunier Extra Brut "Olim" 2021 is a striking expression of single-varietal Champagne, crafted entirely from Pinot Meunier grapes. With an alcohol content of approximately 12%, it maintains the crisp, vibrant profile typical of Extra Brut styles, offering minimal residual sugar and a bone-dry finish that accentuates its purity and finesse.
On the palate, this rosé Champagne reveals a delicate yet vivid profile. Expect aromas of fresh red berries—strawberry, raspberry, and red currant—layered with subtle floral notes and a touch of citrus zest. The mousse is fine and persistent, delivering a lively texture that complements the wine’s mineral backbone. Its flavor is clean and focused, with a refreshing acidity that makes it both elegant and energetic.
Food Pairing: This wine pairs beautifully with a range of dishes, particularly those that highlight its bright acidity and delicate fruit. It’s an excellent match for meaty fish such as salmon, swordfish, or tuna, and also complements shellfish, sushi, and light appetizers. Its dryness and structure make it versatile enough to serve throughout a meal, especially with dishes that benefit from a crisp counterpoint.
Notes: Extra Brut style means very low residual sugar—dry and precise. Crafted to showcase the terroir of Boursault, with vinification focused on purity and complexity. Limited availability, making it a bit of a hidden gem among Champagne rosés.
