NV Champagne Roland Champion Cuvée d'Aramis - Washington Post

Washington Post"This is a powerful champagne, showing the red-berry fruit of its red grapes — pinot meunier and pinot noir — and the chalky minerality of the region. Delightful, and a terrific value."

Washington Post (Dave McIntyre, December 19th 2012), (Between "Very good" & "Excellent")

bti"Brilliant pale yellow straw color. Lively, complex aromas of honeyed biscuit, buttery praline, and poached Asian pear with a supple, lively, effervescent, dry-yet-fruity medium-to-full body and an elegant, long creme brulee, white balsamic reduced lemon, spiced nuts and tangerines, and grassy earth and minerals finish with well-integrated, fine tannins. A layered and vibrant champagne with cascading waves of fresh and mature flavors."

i winereview logo"This Meunier based blend offers generous aromas of peach and apple pie with leesy notes. On the palate, it’s plump and chewy with bold flavors of melon, white cherry, and apricot complemented by toasty lees. Finishes long with nice grip and a smoky nuance that lingers. A blend of 70% Pinot Meunier, 20% Pinot Noir, and 10% Chardonnay. Good value in a grower Champagne."

Wine Enthusiast 88 Pts"Dominated by Meunier, this textured, balanced and fruity wine is totally ready to drink. With a bright edge of acidity and a tendency towards dryness, the Champagne is attractively crisp and fruity. - Roger Voss."
