Description
Jean Vesselle Brut Oeil de Perdrix NV – A Rare Pinot Noir Champagne Experience
Discover the artistry of traditional Champagne-making with Jean Vesselle’s Brut Oeil de Perdrix NV, a 100% Pinot Noir cuvée from the esteemed Bouzy vineyards in Champagne, France. This unique non-vintage rosé Champagne captivates with its distinctive “eye of the partridge” hue—a nod to 19th-century Bouzy winemaking—achieved through delicate skin contact for natural color extraction.
Why This Champagne Stands Out:
- Critically Acclaimed: Rated 95 pts by Wine & Spirits for its “beauty and complexity,” with layered aromas of pink roses, wild strawberries, and pomegranate.
- Unfiltered Elegance: Unlike modern rosés, this wine retains its soulful Pinot Noir character, offering a silky palate of red berries, stone fruits, and a peppery finish.
- Expert Praise: Vinous (93 pts) highlights its “floral, resonant” profile, while Wine Advocate (90 pts) applauds its frothy mousse and saline freshness.
Tasting Notes & Pairing:
Expect a harmonious blend of lavender, orange zest, and white pepper on the nose, followed by a medium-bodied texture that balances richness with racy acidity. Perfect with seared scallops, duck confit, or as a standalone indulgence.
