Product Description
Éric Rodez 'Empreinte Noire' Pinot Noir Grand Cru Brut 2010 is an exceptional single-variety champagne from Ambonnay Grand Cru, one of the finest villages in the Montagne de Reims. Rated 95 points by Falstaff, this vintage showcases the full potential of 100% Pinot Noir from a nine-generation family estate.
Biodynamic Viticulture & Artisan Methods
Crafted from 5-7 select parcels averaging 42 years old including Les Genettes, Les Beurys and La Goisse. Vinified entirely in small oak barrels with no malolactic fermentation, no cold stabilization, and no filtration, then aged sur lies for extended complexity.
Golden Power & Red Fruit Intensity
Medium golden yellow with fine, persistent mousse reveals a powerful nose marked by red fruits, hints of dried fruit and candied fruit. The palate is powerful and muscular, all in balance with freshness and elegant minerality—a collector's vintage with over a decade of development. Drink 2024-2035.
