NV Pierre Moncuit Champagne Brut Rose

(90 Points) The NV (2017) Brut Rose is a nervy, taut wine, notwithstanding the presence of 25% Pinot Noir from Bouzy in the blend. Rose petal, dried herbs, mint and bright red berry fruit are nicely delineated. The 2017 is just a touch vegetal, but that note is one stand in a rich fabric. I would open the 2017 in advance to allow for some of the edgier contours to soften, and drink bottles sooner than later, just in case that vegetal element starts to emerge more forcefully.
