{"product_id":"eric-rodez-rose-grand-cru-champagne","title":"Eric Rodez Maceration Rose Grand Cru Champagne","description":"\u003cp data-start=\"0\" data-end=\"239\"\u003eEric Rodez’s rosé is one of those bottles that reads immediately as fun, then keeps unfolding into something much more complete. Bright fruit up front, real Pinot Noir structure underneath, and a lengthy finish that makes you take notice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"241\" data-end=\"620\"\u003eAmbonnay, at the southern edge of the Montagne de Reims, is Grand Cru Pinot Noir country: perfumed, shapely and deep. Rodez brings both precision and ease to the village, farming biodynamically and working parcel by parcel. This rosé is made with maceration, giving Pinot Noir just enough skin time to add color, aroma and a subtle, food-friendly grip.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"622\" data-end=\"909\"\u003eIn the glass, it opens on wild strawberry and raspberry coulis, then moves into rose petal and blood orange with a light dusting of spice, white pepper and a hint of dried thyme. Behind that are gentle layers of brioche and almond, with warm pastry notes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"911\" data-end=\"1243\"\u003eOn the palate, the mousse is fine and energetic, carrying cranberry, pomegranate and tart cherry with a faint savory edge. The maceration shows up as a gentle phenolic pull, enough to frame the fruit without making the wine stern. Then Ambonnay's signature\u003cem\u003e terroir \u003c\/em\u003ecomes through: a chalky mineral line and a clean, dry finish with a light saline snap.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1245\" data-end=\"1568\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\"\u003eThis is not an everyday rosé. But it is a serious one: expressive, structured and marvelous at table. Pour it with charcuterie, roast duck, seared salmon or anything that likes bright acidity and a little savory tension. If you’re opening just one bottle of Champagne this month, there's a strong case for making it this rosé.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AVA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43823180906729,"sku":"6292","price":124.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0579\/2805\/7022\/files\/BB092B7B-D5E7-4C96-9A08-3726F1D4E8AA.png?v=1713458688","url":"https:\/\/waterfordwine.com\/products\/eric-rodez-rose-grand-cru-champagne","provider":"Waterford Wine and Spirits","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
