Un Sachet de Graines Brut Rosé d'assemblage

See: Delicate rosé hue with a fine, persistent mousse.

Smell: Spice-forward — thyme and rosemary lead, followed by violet, orange blossom and peony, underpinned by a delicate fruitiness.

Taste: A tense, structured palate with red citrus and a delicate bitter edge around lively, mouth-watering acidity, finishing with a surprising note of hot spice. BRUT, 7 g/L.

Pair: Duck breast, medium rare, with baby new potatoes or crunchy vegetables — or classic veal kidneys.

Celebrate: For the happy accident — the spilled seed packet that turns into next year's best corner of the garden.

Jean-Marie Massonnot Champagne traces its roots back to the 1930s when Aimé Massonnot began making and selling his own Champagne in Coulommes-la-Montagne, a small village in Vallée de la Marne. Massonnot was passed from generation to generation, and in the ‘80s, Aimé’s grandson, Jean-Marie, ushered in the modern era of the domaine, drawing on the past while also looking toward the future. He took great care in preserving his father’s massal selections from the 1950s while also fully converting the pinot meunier-dominant estate to organic by 2021.

Today, the domaine is a multigeneration operation with Jean-Marie’s daughter, Camille, at the helm. Camille’s husband; her parents, Jean-Marie and Christel; and her brothers, Valentin and Victor, help however they can. Even Camille’s young children find small ways to lend a hand. In the vineyards, Camille continues her father’s commitment to thoughtful, harmonious, organic farming while also incorporating more modern growing and winemaking techniques of her own.

Always honing her winemaking style, Camille keeps human intervention to a minimum — no dosage, no sulfites, no filtration and slow aging on lees — allowing each cuvée to express its unique identity.
