🏰 The 2015 vintage in Champagne was one of the hottest growing seasons on record, even surpassing 2003 and 1976. This led to a dry summer from mid-May onwards, resulting in high sugar levels and, in some areas, reduced yields due to drought. The hot, dry conditions were beneficial in preventing disease, allowing some producers to farm organically by circumstance. While initial assessments were glowing, the vintage later revealed a somewhat polarizing aromatic profile in bottle, with some wines showing pronounced vegetal and ash-like notes linked to drought-related vine stress. However, the best examples are beautifully balanced with rich, intense fruit. This Aubry Sable Rose Brut Nature Premier Cru 2015, from a house known for its traditional approach, offers a vibrant expression of the vintage. 【Hottest growing season on record for Champagne】 🍴 This elegant Brut Nature Rosé Champagne is incredibly versatile. It pairs wonderfully with delicate seafood, such as oysters or scallops, as well as lighter poultry dishes. It's also a fantastic match for charcuterie, fresh goat cheese, or even a classic fruit tart. 🥂 Perfect for any celebratory occasion, from an intimate anniversary dinner to a grand wedding reception. Its crisp, dry profile also makes it an excellent aperitif to kick off an evening in style.
