Why shop with us?
Frederic Savart Expression Rosé 2012 is a distinctive grower Champagne that brings together Chardonnay and Pinot Noir in a beautifully expressive rosé style. Bottled from the 2012 vintage and disgorged in 2016, it offers the kind of tension, detail, and character that makes small-production Champagne so appealing to serious wine lovers.
Tasting Notes
This rosé Champagne typically shows a delicate salmon-pink hue with fine, persistent bubbles. On the nose, expect bright red berry notes, citrus zest, subtle floral tones, and a touch of brioche and mineral nuance from bottle age.
The palate is precise and vibrant, balancing ripe strawberry and raspberry fruit with crisp acidity and a chalky, refined finish. With its vintage depth and extended time on lees, it has the structure to age gracefully for a number of years, developing greater complexity and richness over time.
Production
Produced in Champagne from Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, this wine reflects the cool-climate terroir that gives the region its signature freshness and finesse. The 2012 vintage was vinified and then held until disgorgement in 2016, allowing the wine to gain texture, integration, and complexity before release.
Food & Serving
A versatile Champagne for the table, it pairs well with salmon, tuna tartare, shellfish, roast chicken, and dishes with red berry accents. Serve chilled at around 8-10°C, and decanting is generally not necessary, though a few minutes in the glass can help the aromas open fully.
Producer
Ulysse Collin is one of Champagne’s most respected grower producers, known for wines that highlight vineyard identity, precision, and depth. Based in the Côte des Blancs and surrounding areas, the estate has earned a strong reputation among enthusiasts for its artisanal approach and consistently high-quality releases.
