Rosé Millésimé 2012
Rare Champagne | Rosé | Vintage 2012
There are bottles you save for special moments – and then wonder when that moment is actually supposed to be. The Rare Rosé Millésimé 2012 is one of those bottles.
Right from the first smell, there's this dark, warm spice: wild cherry, raspberry, orange zest, a hint of smoke, cocoa, pink pepper. Plus that iconic Rare texture – creamy, smooth, almost silky. A feeling you recognize immediately once you've experienced it.
The color is surprising: noticeably lighter and less "classic rosé" than you'd expect.
In a large glass with enough room, the rosé becomes really serious: powerful, elegant, luxurious. Not playful, not sweet, but deep, spicy and incredibly harmonious. A champagne that creates atmosphere.
Compared to the rather cool, precise 2013 or the opulent 2008, the 2012 rosé is warm, spicy and elegant – perfect for festive occasions.
Tasting Notes
