If you’re after the true heart of Champagne, then look no further! The Gobillard family lives mere metres from the grave of Dom Pérignon (the 17th-Century Benedictine monk who was an important quality pioneer for Champagne wine and made Hautvillers the most renowned village of the region). Following decades of hard work the Gobillard family have secured 26 hectares of vines, much of which is Premier Cru that was once owned by the Benedictine Hautvillers Abbey. We’re always trying to find little gems like this from small producers that represent great value for money – and this rosé hits the bullseye! The aromas of ripe red berries, freshly baked brioche and delicate blossom burst from the glass with every delicate bubble. On the palate there is superb flavour intensity, as well as the racy acidity that Champagne is renowned for, keeping this wine fresh and balanced – meaning you’ll want to come back for another glass time and again.
