Champagne Camille Jacquet Rosé Brut NV

Camille Jacquet is a fresh, younger-generation label from the celebrated house of Jean Pernet. A second label to the iconic Pernet Champagne house, its roots reach back to the 17th century, with the modern Maison founded in 1959 and run today by the next generation of the family. Their home base sits in what might be our single favorite pocket of Champagne… the illustrious Grand Cru of Le Mesnil-sur-Oger.

The estate draws on more than 40 acres of vineyards across some of Champagne's most coveted communes – the top Chardonnay villages of the Côte des Blancs like Le Mesnil, Vertus, Chouilly, and Épernay, plus prized parcels where Pinot Noir and Meunier thrive. That’s one dizzyingly top-tier list of immaculate Champagne crus! And they have access to other Grand Cru villages within the Champagne area – you know, those delectable plots where Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier thrive.

This frankly stunning rosé pulls Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier from select growers in Bouzy and the Montagne de Reims, magically whisked back to the stunning limestone soils covered with bright and crunchy Chardonnay in the Côte des Blancs. The fruit is fermented into vin clair that is allowed to rest in barrel for a full 30 months, before bottling to undergo second life and become Champagne. Finally, a red still wine is added for color, alongside a final Brut dosage of 7 grams, et voila! Rosé Champagne that takes your breath away for less than $45 a bottle!

In the glass, it's a pale salmon hue with an inviting nose of Ruby Red grapefruit and pomelo that carries onto the palate. The citrine entrance evolves into fresh strawberry, raspberry, and rose petals, with a fruity, crisp, and refreshing character and a lovely floral, rose-filled lift. Firmly Brut, but full of nervy energy, it's a glorious partner at the table and an effortless pour on its own. There's always room for more Rosé Champagne in the cellar – and for merely $44, well below other retailers who sold it for $80, this is an easy one to bring home. Free shipping when you grab four!
