2008 | Champagne Roses de Jeanne | La Boloree Blanc de Blancs

The 2008 Blanc de Blancs La Bolorée is also beginning to drink brilliantly, unfurling in the glass with notes of pear, blanched almonds, beeswax and dried white flowers. Medium to full-bodied, layered and concentrated, it's deep and structured, with prodigious levels of chalky dry extract and a long, intensely saline finish.

Reviews:

• Wine Advocate: 2008 Brut Blanc de Blancs La Boloree delivers varietally classic apple, lemon and sweet corn both in the nose and on a luscious palate where they are mingled with oyster liquor and an oceanic amalgam of salt, alkali, and kelp.

Producer Information

Champagne Roses de Jeanne is a sought-after Champagne producer located in the Côte de Bar in the village of Landreville. Propietor Cédric Bouchard has been producing Roses de Jeanne Champagne since 2000 from single vineyards, varieties and vintages, forgoing the usual Champagne practice of assemblage or blending. Vineyards for the production of Champagne Roses de Jeanne are all located in the Aube, an area in the south of the region that is known as Pinot Noir country. It is warmer here than in comparison to the northern parts of Champagne with soils largely composed of limestone-rich clay. Bouchard farms his own vineyards organically and produces varietal Champagnes from Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Pinot Blanc. Vine yields are kept extremely low to allow for concentrated flavor compounds to accumulate in the berries. Champagne Roses de Jeanne is vinified more like a Burgundy to express the vintage, the individual character of the grape variety, and the terroir. Grapes are hand-harvested and sorted, juice is only used from the first pressing, and fermentation is completed via indigenous yeasts. After a secondary fermentation in bottle, Champagnes are corked without dosage.
