Henri Champliau is a family-owned sparkling wine producer in Mercurey, located in the heart of the Côte Chalonnaise region of Burgundy. Though they’re a bit of a new player on the scene, their méthode traditionnelle Sparkling wine has been turning some heads and challenging generations of tradition.
This is an absolute beauty coming out of Burgundy and a Cremant that catches you off guard. A beautiful pale pink blend that absolutely sings in a glass. It has a precise and intense mouth, dominated by the Pinot Noir that brings elegance and power and aided by the structure and freshness of the Chardonnay. The kicker is the Gamay that defies typical Burgundian methods and brings in another layer balance but with a little extra flair. It’s delicious.

Bursting with vibrant pink grapefruit and red berry aromas; a complexity of brioche, hibiscus and lime zest with a creamy mousse and an elegant, saline finish.

Eric Guido of Vinous just reviewed a number of Bele Casel wines last week and lobbed heaps of praise for each and every one of them. For this one in particular, he wrote a great review that I agree with on multiple fronts. For one, he called out ripe orchard fruits and candied citrus which I think helps set this one apart. In the dry category, you rarely get so much pure, juicy fruit as you do in this one. He also noted the “chalky minerality’ before calling out ‘the amazing length and freshness’ of this wine which called an ‘excellent entry into the dry category’.
Named ‘Oeil de Perdrix’ (eye of the partridge), Joe grows a special vineyard of Pinot Noir especially for this pink wine, similar to how many of the Roses in Burgundy are made. It’s a 100% Rose of Pinot that Joe lightly whole-cluster presses and then ages in a combination of French Oak and stainless steel. That’s what makes this baby absolutely soar, both in the aromatics and on the palate with red berries, nectarine, and tropical fruits and a cherry/citrus mix. It’s a delight to drink.
Fresh off a huge feature in The Wall Street Journal in which they were crowned as the top Prosecco Rose in a lineup of 14, I suspect what was once our little secret will explode. James Suckling also finally got around to tasting it and gave it 91 points. I’d rate it even higher. The 2021 Bisol Jeio Brut Prosecco Rosé is remarkable, and simply put, mouth-wateringly delicious. Inviting aromas of flowers and wild strawberries, with a complex mouthfeel that sings with citrus fruits and creaminess from the tiny crisp bubbles.

“Luxurious and rich, yet pinpoint in focus, with expressive apple and strawberry flavors highlighted by brioche, ginger and spices. Drink now.” -Wine Spectator
