Frederic Savart Champagne 'Bulle de Rosé' Vieilles Vignes 1er Cru Extra Brut RIPASSO chalky tanninsFred's ros is a ros d'assemblage composed of 70% Pinot Noir, 22% Chardonnay, and 8% still red wine. It comes entirely from the village of Ecueil. It is fermented mostly in stainless steel, with around 20% of the blend made in neutral barrels. The dosage is 6g L. Fred Savart is a force to be reckoned with. Tasting in his cellar is as much a tour of the various terroirs of the Montagne de Reims as it is a discussion of whats new in the wine world. Fred
