The Eric Rodez Champagne Grand Cru Extra Brut Rosé Maceration NV is a captivating and bold expression of Pinot Noir from the Grand Cru vineyards of Ambonnay, a village renowned for its exceptional terroir. This rosé is crafted using the maceration method, which involves extended skin contact to extract both the vivid color and the complex, structured character of Pinot Noir. Eric Rodez’s commitment to biodynamic practices and minimal intervention ensures that the wine authentically reflects the vineyard’s quality and the precision of his winemaking. The low 3 g/l dosage of Extra Brut further highlights the wine’s purity and vibrancy.

In the glass, the wine displays a radiant, deep pink hue with orange highlights. On the nose, it offers an expressive bouquet of wild strawberries, red cherries, and pomegranate, layered with notes of rose petals, orange zest, and a touch of spice. Subtle hints of toasted brioche and chalky minerality add depth and intrigue. The palate is full-bodied and structured, with vibrant acidity and a fine, persistent mousse. The flavors mirror the nose, with red fruit and citrus leading into a long, mineral-driven finish that is both fresh and elegant.

This Champagne is a versatile pairing for a variety of dishes, including smoked salmon, duck breast with a cherry glaze, or grilled prawns. It also complements charcuterie, soft cheeses, and fruit-based desserts like strawberry tart. The Eric Rodez Champagne Grand Cru Extra Brut Rosé Maceration NV is a remarkable example of rosé Champagne, offering both richness and finesse, and showcasing Eric Rodez’s mastery of crafting wines that embody the character of Ambonnay. Perfect for celebrations or refined meals, this rosé is as versatile as it is memorable.

no dosage, mineral and tense style. A few go for a bit more power and something with a little oxidative quality, a la Selosse. We love them both. But what if you want something more luxurious and textural, a more golden style? Something sort of like, well . . . Krug?

The answer then, is Champagne Eric Rodez. Eric and his wife Martine are the stewards of estate that has been producing Champagne in the village of Ambonnay for over 250 years. Indeed they are so tied to the village that Eric was the mayor for several years, until 2014. Now joined by their son Mickaël, they have quietly kept up the long tradition of excellence.

Farming is organic with biodynamic principles employed on their 9 hectares of Pinot Noir and 7 of Chardonnay. In the cellar they use large percentages of reserve wines to achieve the elegant, vinous style that they are known for. Eric is a master at blending older vintages into his wines, something he learned during his days as the winemaker at Krug. Yes, the Krug connection is no coincidence!
