Champagne Palmer & Co Rosé Solera NV
The Champagne Palmer & Co Rosé Solera is produced using the 'Solera' winemaking method. Palmer & Co is one of the rare champagne houses to have adapted this well-known technique that is often used for Spanish wines. Each year, Palmer & Co adds red wines from the new harvest into the Solera, which have been barrel-aged and typically amounts to 6-7%, to compensate for the wine drawn off. This perpetual reserve was started 40 years ago and is kept in stainless steel tanks. It forms an extraordinary library expressing a unique combination of red fruit and spice aromas and flavours. This rosé Champagne was then bottle-aged for two to three years on the lees, in the 18 metre deep chalk cellars which imbues the wine with incredible complexity. The result is an irresistible rosé Champagne combining great precision, freshness and fullness with charming aromas of wild strawberries, red and black currants, along with beautiful hints of vanilla and cinnamon spice.
