Bottle Champagne Grande Cuvée Rosé Sendrée 2006/2009

Great Sendrée Rosé gets its name from a parcel covered in ash after the fire that ravaged Urville in 1836. A spelling error having slipped into parroting Maps, Sendrée is written today with an "s" and not a "c". On soils while légèrereté of "Crayot" the Pinot Black brings everything in its power and subtlety vinosity. A key Chardonnay gives the whole great elegance.
