Paul Bara Champagne Special Club Rosé 2015 Grand Cru

Die Cuvee “Special Club“ wird nur in Ausnahmejahren erzeugt. 

- 93 VINOUS,Antonio Galloni (11/22): „The 2015 Rosé Special Club offers notable depth and intensity in a rich, vinous style that is quite appealing. There is bit of edginess that needs time to resolve, and yet there is so much to admire. Crushed flowers, chalk mint and white pepper lend brilliance to this sculpted, vibrant Champagne. The only thing missing is perhaps a bit more continuity, as the finish narrows a bit, leaving a slight feeling of austerity on the close.“Disgorged: January, 2021“ 2022-2030

- 4* GERHARD EICHELMANN für Jahrgang 2012: "Der Special Club Rose Brut Millesime Grand Cru besteht aus drei Viertel Pinot Noir und einem Viertel Chardonnay, ist ein Rose d'Assemblage mit 8 % im Edelstahl ausgebauten Bouzy Rouge. Jahrgang 2012 ist enorm konzentriert, stoffig, kraftvoll, sehr jugendlich.
Die Champagner von Paul Bara sind kraftvoll und konzentriert, immer geprägt vom Pinot Noir, Pinot Noir aus Bouzy. Sie zeigen eine bewundernswerte Konstanz über die jahre hinweg, sind dominant und nachhaltig, wirken immer sehr jugendlich, schon der Brut ohne Jahrgang, Brut Reserve genannt, zeigt beeidruckende Qualität."

- PETER LIEM champagneguide.net: "Beginning in the 2004 vintage, Bara has made a rosé version of the Spécial Club, adding about eight percent of red wine to the Club blend. This is the first rosé in the history of the Club Trésors de Champagne, and given the estate’s track record with both red wine and rosé, it seems fitting that Bara is the one to initiate it. Chantale Bara modestly credits the suitability of Bouzy’s warm terroir, saying, “Rosé is a specialty of Bouzy. The red wine of Bouzy is very well-known for rosé.
Paul Bara’s champagnes are classic examples of Bouzy, with a full body and an ample, fruity ripeness thanks to pinot noir grown on the village’s warm, south-facing slopes. At the same time they demonstrate an unusual refinement and finesse, and despite the absence of malolactic, these champagnes are rarely aggressive - they tend to feel velvety in their depth of fruit and seamless in their integration of components from beginning to end. All of Bara’s wines are pure Bouzy and 100-percent grand cru, since they own no other parcels."
