93 points Antonio Galloni (Vinous): "[$110 list] The NV (2018) Extra Brut Rosé de Saignée Les Beaudiers is 100% Meunier from vines planted in 1953, 1958 and 1963. It is also one of the most complex and distinctive Rosés readers will come across. Gorgeous floral and savory nuances weave through a delicate, understated core of Meunier fruit. The Beaudiers is a contemplative wine to savor over a leisurely meal. I loved it. Dosage is 3 grams per liter. Disgorged: November, 2021. Drink: 2022-2030. (May 2022)"
Producer notes: "Old vines (planted in 1953, 1958 and 1965) in the low-yielding parcel of Les Baudiers planted to Meunier, but the occasional Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Fromonteau vines are found in the vineyard as well. Extremely careful, meticulous work is done in the vineyard to obtain the healthiest grapes. Destemming and maceration of 12-16 hours, primary fermentation in barrel, no malo, aged minimum of 4 years, dosed at 0-5 gr/l depending on the vintage. Aurelien seeks a vinous and textured wine but with delicacy and lift for a rosé de saignée."
