Pommery Champagne Brut Rose Apanage

Introduction

A really pale ros with hints of onion skin, this tastes as light and delicate as its color. It has more citrus than red fruits, an ethereal line of acidity and a fresh character. Producer Information Pommery is a Champagne house located in Reims and claims to be the inventor of the Brut style of Champagne so popular today. It’s early history is synonymous with Jeanne-Alexandrine Louise Pommery (commonly refered to as Louise Pommery), who guided the house through its early beginnings to substantial growth in the mid 19th Century.The Pommery brand is known for its freshness and finesse, epitomized by the range-topping Cuve Louise. This is made up exclusively of grapes from the three top grand cru vineyards: Avize and Cramant for the Chardonnay and A for the Pinot Noir. The house produces a range of Brut Champagnes, including Brut Royal, Brut Apanage and Brut Blue Sky. To mark its 175th anniversary, the house also launched the Les Clos Pompadour cuve in 2011, sourced from a 25-hectare (61-acre) walled vineyard next to Pommery’s headquarters in Reims. Initially a non-vintage release, the second installment of the cuve in 2014 was of the 2003 vintage.
