Gerbais/Pierre Extra Brut Rosé Champagne Grains de Celles NV

93 points William Kelley (Wine Advocate): "Disgorged in April 2018, the 2016 Extra-Brut Grains de Celles Rosé is showing beautifully, wafting from the glass with aromas of red berries, pear and freshly baked bread. Medium to full-bodied, with a pretty core of fruit, ripe but racy acids and a youthfully frothy mousse, it's intense and flavorful. This cuvée derives from Gerbais's finest parcels in Celles sur Ource. Drink: 2020-2033. (Sep 2020)"

91 points Wine Spectator: "Lively acidity is layered with notes of pink grapefruit sorbet, nectarine and a hint of whole grain toast in this elegant rosé Champagne. Lightly chalky on the finish. Disgorged April 2018. 830 cases made, 7 cases imported. (2021)"

91 points John Gilman (View From the Cellar): "Aurélien Gerbais’ Grains de Celles” Extra Brut Rosé is made from the same cépages as the non-Rosé bottling, but with ten percent of the pinot noir portion here being still red wine, which gives it a beautiful salmon color. It is from the base year of 2018 and was disgorged in April of 2021, with a finishing dosage of three grams per liter. The bouquet is lovely, delivering scents of strawberries, blood orange, that beautiful limestone minerality, rye bread and a topnote of dried flowers. On the palate the wine is brisk, full-bodied, focused and complex, with a fine core, pinpoint bubbles, lovey focus and grip and very impressive mineral drive on the backend. Fine juice. 2022-2040. (Nov/Dec 2021)"

90 points La Revue du Vin de France: "Its rosé alter ego is dynamic and gourmand, with a bubble that seems more delicate than on previous disgorgement. (2025)"
