Product Description
Philippe Lancelot '100 Pour Sang' Extra Brut Rose translates to "Thoroughbred"—a fitting name for this exceptional 100% Pinot Noir from Ambonnay Grand Cru. Sourced exclusively from the single vineyard Le Terme Bazin, planted in 1979, this Rose Champagne represents the pinnacle of Philippe Lancelot's biodynamic viticulture.
Purist Biodynamic Philosophy
Demeter-certified and crafted with oenologist Hervé Jestin, this Champagne reflects sulfur-free winemaking introduced in 2015. The iconic 2012 vintage showcases Ambonnay's powerful terroir—where Pinot Noir thrives on chalky soils to produce structured, age-worthy wines rarely seen in rose expressions.
Complex Depth
The wine reveals rich, multifaceted flavors of cherry jam, spices, and hazelnut that evolve into a long, intriguing finish. Extra Brut dosage preserves the vineyard's natural character, allowing mineral precision and red fruit intensity to shine through. From ancient vines nearly 50 years old and vinified with minimal intervention, this thoroughbred rose stands among Champagne's most compelling single-vineyard expressions.
