Nov 2022","description":"\u003cp\u003eSaignée de Sorbée is a zero-dosage rosé Champagne made by macerating whole Pinot Noir bunches, and drinks as much like a light red as a pink sparkling wine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Sorbée plot is a small, almost flat plateau above the slope on which Vouette sits, in the Côte des Bar. It is close to pure Portlandian limestone, a rarity in Champagne, with a slight south-westerly exposure. The vines are between 32 and 50 years old and were planted with old mass-selection cuttings taken from Domaine Lafarge in Volnay. The soils have been cultivated since at least the 1860s and have never seen herbicide, which Bertrand Gautherot credits with making the conversion to biodynamic farming straightforward. He picks here in several passes, keeping only the smallest bunches and ripest fruit. Uncrushed whole grapes macerate in an open-top wooden vat before pressing, the wine is vinified entirely without sulphur, ages ten months in 400-litre barrels, and is disgorged with no dosage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBest drunk now for its vibrancy; serve at 8 to 10°C with charcuterie, seared tuna or duck breast.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e*Every effort is made to ensure the current vintage is accurate; however, variations can occur.
