Golden Palms Rosé 2002 - Champagne Nicolas Feuillatte

Presentation of the domain

Champagne Nicolas Feuillatte (Centre Vinicole de la Champagne) brings together a vast network of winemakers. Contemporary style: precision of blends, mastery of aging on lees and the search for a chalky and elegant expression of the Champagne terroirs.

The vintage and the appellation

Palmes d'Or Rosé 2002 is a saignée rosé, made mainly from Pinot Noir from grands crus (Bouzy, Ambonnay, Aÿ). Fermentation in stainless steel vats, partial malolactic fermentation, extended aging on lees (several years) before disgorging. Moderate Brut dosage: satiny texture, vinosity, chalky structure.
