Mouzon-Leroux’s Champagne “L’Incandescent” Rosé de Saignée Extra Brut NV, with a 2019 base, is a bold and expressive rosé crafted exclusively from Pinot Noir. Using the saignée method, where the juice macerates briefly with the skins, this Champagne gains its vibrant color and depth of flavor. Mouzon-Leroux’s dedication to biodynamic viticulture in the Grand Cru village of Verzy in the Montagne de Reims brings out the rich character of the Pinot Noir and the terroir’s chalky minerality. The Extra Brut dosage accentuates the wine’s natural acidity and keeps the profile crisp and focused.

On the nose, “L’Incandescent” bursts with aromas of wild strawberries, red cherries, and pomegranate, complemented by floral hints and a touch of spice. The palate is layered and vibrant, featuring flavors of ripe red berries, blood orange, and a subtle earthiness, with a fine, creamy mousse that enhances its texture. The Extra Brut finish is precise and dry, leaving a lingering impression of chalk and a hint of salinity.

This Champagne pairs beautifully with dishes like duck, charcuterie, or grilled salmon, where its bold fruit profile and structure shine. The 2019 base imparts freshness and intensity, making “L’Incandescent” a captivating choice for those who appreciate a robust, terroir-driven rosé Champagne with depth and elegance.
