Laurent Bénard gets his colour by macerating black grapes on their skins. Today his Rouge de Noirs comes out as a non-vintage Brut Nature, so this 2012 Extra Brut is a look back at an earlier chapter of the cuvée. The house farms Premier Cru vines on chalk and clay-limestone in Mareuil-sur-Aÿ, Mutigny and Avenay-Val-d'Or, in the Vallée de la Marne. Michelle and Laurent Bénard-Pitois are the third generation of growers here. They ran their first organic trials in the mid-1990s, and fittingly, 2012 is the year their organic certification came through. If you think of pink Champagne as a party trick, this is the counterargument: serious, grower-made and black grapes from top to bottom.","brand":"Avant Garde (T Elent) [AVG]","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44138412376099,"sku":"SF-W-AVG-`AG210025X612`-110426-10","price":114.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0044\/1208\/0163\/files\/Bottle-of-Laurent-Benard-Champagne-Rouge-Rose-Extra-Brut-de-Noirs-de-Saignee-2012-Sparkling-Wine-Flatiron-SF.jpg?v=1793926641","url":"https:\/\/sf.flatiron-wines.com\/products\/laurent-benard-champagne-rouge-rose-extra-brut-de-noirs-de-saignee-2012","provider":"Flatiron SF","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
