This product is not currently available.

Why you should buy: Wines from the Chassenay d’Arce cooperative are truly singular and a flavorful expression of soil, air and grape and this gorgeous bottle of salmon-hued cuvée is one of their best.

Nose, palate and pairing: Layered with aromas of kirsch, red currants, and a dash of white pepper, this Brut Rosé is vibrant and fresh, an ideal aperitif that makes the mouth water. Try it with grilled lobster, duck rillettes, or even with brunch (especially if crisp bacon is on the table).

The backstory: Once a year, nearly 130 family-owned growers gather at the Chassenay d’Arce cooperative, combining the fruits of their labor to make this pretty pink cuvée. Their methodology is nearly as old as the Champagne appellation itself. In a sense, wines like this are the local, greenmarket alternative to the big-name Champagne brands.

Varietals: 65% Pinot Noir, 35% Chardonnay
Nose: Layers of red fruits, kirsch, and anise
Appellation: Champagne A.O.C.

Since 1956, nearly 130 family-owned growers have gathered at Chassenay d’Arce to make the house cuvées and single-varietal Champagnes. At the heart of this cooperative—310 hectares of vineyards located near the border of Champagne and Burgundy—is a grand old mansion built from local stones.

We Love This With

With aromas of kirsch, stones, cassis and red fruit, this Brut Rosé is delicate enough for oysters and canapés but squares its shoulders against a meatier meal, especially one involving pork: Bacon is fantastic with a good rosé Champagne, as are honey-baked ham, pork sliders, and this fantastic European-style dried sausage assortment.
