Information
2006 Palmes d’Or Rosé is a fine Champagne requiring serious contemplation that typifies pinot noir to perfection. Carried by the intensity of the vintage, rich and mature, it is juicy and consistent amid its full-bodied structure. The “saignée” method, imparting lovely colour from the black grape skins, brings enviable complexity and a wonderfully rich palate of red fruit flavours. The 2006 vintage, to which the Champagne owes its sumptuous style, also contributes appealing plumpness to the wine. On the palate, ripe fruit and stone fruit flavours intertwine with a hint of warm forest floor and sweet spice. This subtle, sensual, prestigious Champagne stands as an exemplar of the perfect balance of powerful pinot noir fruit from Bouzy and its subtly perfumed Ricey counterparts. Ideal for accompanying fine food and entertaining, this generous, utterly charming Rosé is best shared with an intimate circle of friends. It would make a heavenly digestive to end a meal in style.
Story
2006 is one of three great vintages of the decade. Having coped well with a cold and dry winter, the vines saw abundant flowering from spring onwards, resulting in strong fruit set, generally favoured by dry, warm weather. This was followed by July’s dry, heatwave conditions, while temperatures in August were unseasonably low, with record rainfall. September saw a fortuitous turn in conditions, with fine weather promoting good ripening in the grapes, and growers harvesting very ripe fruit. Vinifications proceeded well, revealing all the essential qualities for the Champagne to evolve well: good sugar/acidity ratios, promising potential alcohol and lovely body. 2006 is a powerful, remarkably wellbalanced vintage of great harmony; exquisite body on the palate reveals maturity while a seam of freshness supports the wines’ aromatic qualities.
About manufacturer
The Champagne House of Nicolas Fyuyat, founded in 1976, in a short time managed not only to overtake many eminent manufacturers with a long history, but also to occupy a place in the top five largest Champagne Houses. In 1986, the company entered into an alliance with the association of elite vineyards \"Center Vinicolet de la Champagne\" in order to promote Nicolas Feuillatte champagne. Today, Champagne House brings together more than a thousand winegrowers and 86 wineries. Joint ownership covers an area of ​​2 thousand hectares of vineyards, which is 7% of the territory of the Champagne appellation. Champagne under the label \"Nicolas Feuillatte\" is made from grapes grown in 10 vineyards of the Grand Cru category and 27 vineyards of Premiers Crus in various regions of Montagne de Reims, Côtes de Blancs, L\'Ardre, Wesle, Cezanne, in the Marne Valley. The success in obtaining great champagne depends on the quality of the yeast used, so the Champagne House Nicolas Feuillatte derived his own yeast culture in his laboratory. Annual sales of the Nicolas Feuillatte House are about 7 million bottles per year, 50% of which are exported to more than 50 countries
