(The wine’s singular hue is like the color of a partridge’s eye.) Pinot Noir grapes are macerated briefly to extract color then pressed. Pink roses, lavender, wild strawberry and pomegranate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eProfessional Ratings\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e94Wine \u0026amp; Spirits\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFrom its delicate pink color to the lovely saturation of flavor, this traditional style of Champagne is consistently one of Delphine Vesselle’s most compelling wines. It’s a wine her father developed, to mimic the days when it would take longer for ripe grapes to reach their cellars in Bouzy, and the color of the pinot noir skins would begin to bleed into the juice of the grapes. Now, Vesselle leaves the ripe grapes to macerate for less than a day before pressing, then allows the juice to ferment on the ambient yeasts in stainless steel tanks. It develops a complex aroma with notes of oranges and strawberries, along with a textural grace that makes it easy to drink a lot of this wine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e94Jeb Dunnuck\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMade from 100% Pinot Noir, the NV Champagne Oeul de Pedrix Brut has a pale salmon hue and a very pretty perfume of rose water, orange blossom, and peach. Elegant and medium-bodied, with pithy grapefruit citrus and salty minerality, it should improve over the next 10-15 years.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jean Vesselle","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46047455510752,"sku":"122841","price":77.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0649\/9713\/0464\/files\/jean-vesselle-oeil-de-perdrix-brut-champagne-grand-cru-bouzy_1.jpg?v=1721244902","url":"https:\/\/www.mywineconnection.com\/products\/jean-vesselle-oeil-de-perdrix-brut-champagne-grand-cru-bouzy-nv-750ml","provider":"My Wine Connection","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
