2008 Champagne Rare, Millésime, Brut

Description

The Millésime Rare is an absolutely delicious Champagne, and a wonderful example of the quality of the 2008 vintage. Made up of 70% Chardonnay and 30% Pinot Noir, all grapes for the wine were sourced from Grand Cru villages. Initially delicate on the nose, it opens up in the glass to show aromas of sweet peach, dried flowers, almonds and white pepper. The palate is ripe with a rich mousse; it’s zesty and refreshing, with hints of pineapple, blood orange, liquorice and freshly-baked pastries.

About this wine

Rare Champagne

Award-winning winemaker Régis Camus is the mastermind behind Rare Champagne. From 2002 until 2018, he held the post of Cellar Master at renowned Champagne House, Piper-Heidsieck. Under his tenure, the Rare Millésime Champagnes attracted much acclaim, especially given that these wines are only released in the best vintages. So that he could better focus on the Rare Champagne range, Régis took the decision to leave Piper-Heidsieck and establish his own Champagne House. Rare Champagne, therefore, is now operating as a separate entity.
