Bottle Notes

N.V. Paul Bara Grand Rosé – Bottle Notes

Champagne Paul Bara was founded in 1860. The village of Bouzy is situated in Montagne de Reims. Paul Bara is the most successful grower Champagne from Bouzy where much of the grapes produced go into mass-produced wines of the large, corporate champagne houses.

Imported by Kermit Lynch.

Salmon colored. 12.5% ABV. Disgorged 12/2016. Persistent tiny bubbles. Pretty nose of red fruits, citrus and recently baked bread. Fresh and creamy on the palate. Flavors of strawberry, green apple, cream and minerals. The finish is long, crisp and refreshing. Really well made Champagne. I imagine this will age gracefully.

My rating: 91 points.

This bottle is fairly priced at $60. I suspect we will be going back for more.
