Grapelive Wine of the Week
By Kerry Winslow
***
N.V. Marc Hebrart Brut Rose Champagne.
There is nothing to think about here, it is near perfect and delivers pleasure and balance, this Champagne house just has nailed it with all their offerings, all offer greatness for a fair price. The Hebrart Rose is another stunning value and a grand luxury in flavor and class, don’t miss out on this one if you see it. The nose has a yeast and toast note with some light strawberry essence in the background before a palate of cherry, golden fig and bread dough with a zesty finish. This Brut Rose Champagne is what all want to be, but few are, sexy, stylish and refined with great and modest manners, a perfect partner to show off to family and friends! Jean-Paul Hebrart is fast becoming one of my heros, bravo, for an excellent sparkler that dazzles.
