I have always liked what Fichet does with the wine and in 2002

The bouquet is attractive with mint and juniper berries that grab the attention of the olfactory senses

and to my mind

raspberry and spice

and currants are followed by a medium to full-bodied red possessing great fruit

Ruinart, Rose Vintage:N.V. I have always liked whatBased on the 2021 vintage and including 30% reserve wines, the most recent release of Ruinarts NV Brut Ros was disgorged in March 2024 with a dosage of eight grams per liter. It reveals aromas of pomegranate, dark cherry, redcurrant and blood orange, mingling with cranberry, brioche and a touch of rooibos. On the palate, it is medium bodied and elegantly muscular, vinous and layered, with lively acidity and a perfumed, saline tinged finish.
