95 Points

Tuesday, July 16, 2013 - I was considering for a while to increase the grade on this one to 95 (see previous note on this one), so I decided to put it up for a challenge in a French place. The verdict was clear, and all thumbs up. All participants plus the sommelier have voted thumbs up:
Small, long and stable bubbles, crystal clear pink/rose color. Long, long long finish... light fruits and blossom smell, on the dry side, but not as dry as the 2002 Pierre Paillard, for example.
Foods: Super good match to the fish dishes selected for dinner, and superurb match with Tarte Flambée the participants shared for appetizer. The vote of the people was: Bring more of that one.

So, to conclude: This Pierre Paillard Brut Rosé gives the best return for taste, and for value (cost) I've had in a very long time. It has a positive grade prospect (94-96) and I would say that if it keeps developing the way it is, it should make people happy for many years to come (assuming we won't finish all our bottles :D)
