Charles de Cazanove Ros\u00e9 Champagne \u2013 One Happy Surprise!<\/a><\/h3>\nClick over there to find out how a mistake made in a moment of hurry had a happy ending.<\/p>\n
Trying wines from different places, made with different grapes, and produced by different methods adds spice to our monthly ritual. Since New Years Eve 2007 we have raised a glass of sparkling wine to greet each new month!<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\nOur bottle of Charles de Cazanove Ros\u00e9 is a blend of 15% Chardonnay, 50% Pinot Noir, 20% Pinot Meunier, and 15% C\u00f4teaux Champenois<\/a> Rouge. The blend will vary from year-to-year as the winemaker tries to achieve the house style. We're always happy when we see a high percentage of Pinot Noir in a bottle. And, we love wines of great value. This one should be about $35. <\/p>\nK & L Wines<\/a> always has great and reliable descriptions of wines. "This rich, round ros\u00e9 is a truly affordable luxury. Although thus far off the radar of wine critics, I think it's the best wine from de Cazanove, with its lovely strawberry color and aromas. Full-bodied but nicely balanced, this wine will make a great aperitif or pair well with a charcuterie plate or after-dinner fruit salad."<\/p>\nThen they include this quote which makes us happy about opening an older bottle.<\/p>\n
"… 91 points Wine Spectator,<\/span> Refined, with well-meshed acidity providing a backbone for delicate flavors of dried currant, graphite, green plum, meringue and grapefruit zest. Fresh, smoke-tinged finish. Drink now through 2020."<\/p>\nOur friends at Bauer Wine & Spirits<\/a> often have this wine in stock.<\/p>\nRelated Posts:<\/strong><\/p>\nOur Sparkling Resolution is covered in this post : Join Us as We Toast…<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n
