3.7
Pale pink, almost reading as a white - colour observation, not a critique. Hollow and simple beyond that - some peach, a touch of cornichon (that's actually nice), bread, red apple skins, a bitter pithy edge like apple seeds. But we drank it almost straight off disgorgement, so the wine may simply be in post-disgorgement shock - Bruno Paillard gives his entry cuvées at least five to six months of post-disgorgement rest before release. Worth retrying late 2026.
About
Limited-edition rosé sparkling Pinot Noir from Volodymyr Palariev's Blanc de Noirs program at Frumushika-Nova - 100% Pinot Noir, on-site Bessarabian steppe fruit (the producer publishes the parcel coordinates: 46°17'45.0"N 29°24'48.1"E), gentle direct press at no more than 50% yield, classical Champagne method, 48 months on lees. Released in numbered tubes; 150 bottles. The tier sits above the regular 12-month Pinot Noir Brut.
The tube label reads Brut Nature - i.e. zero dosage; the producer's online market page simplifies it to 'Брют' without a g/L number, but the label on the bottle is the authoritative spec. No disgorgement date is published anywhere; the mathematical floor for a 2021 base on 48 months sur lattes is mid-to-late 2025. 12%.
