September 28, 2023 - Salmon ruby hue. Lifted nose of violets, raspberry, rinsed stone. Crisp cranberry, red raspberry, and strawberry on the fizzy palate. Energetic acidity driving true refreshment. Wonderful with grilled salmon. Half bottle consumed on MDI.

March 22, 2023 - This bottle was well-matured. Nice honey nose and astringent palate; it deserves the higher classification it commands now.

December 9, 2022 - 2014 base, disgorged 2018.
Bit older than I would usually drink this champagne.
Color is deep pink, verging on light red.
Expressive nose with some aging. Red berries, mushroom, nuts and pastry.
Full body, frothy, Sweet Red berries flavours, dried fruits, dry with mellowed acidity. Good intensity and depth of flavours, long sweet red berries aftertaste.
Very good rose de Saignée. My favourite producer for this style of rose. -

November 10, 2022 - Initial taste similar to some Alsace/Reislings with a petrol note - not really my type of thing.
This lessened over time but was always there.
Don't think it was a bottle problem??

2011 Champagne Catalog, 6/1/2011 (link)(NV René Geoffroy Rosé de Saignée) ($77.00) The demand is so feverish the wine sells out just as it’s starting to really find its fruit with a year on the cork. I tasted an ’08 cuvée disgorged 12/10, with the magnificently pretty fruit of this lovely vintage. An ’09 cuvée, disgorged the first week of March, has more body and fruit but less flower; richer, more brioche-y, more mid-palate. We’ll see it in the Fall. It does bear mentioning, our most popular Geoffroy wine is also our least dry Geoffroy wine. This in-demand fella is packing a whole 10g.l. of filthy residual sugar. Thanks for not minding!
