Champagne Charles Orban Brut Rosé
WHY WE LOVE IT
Varietal Composition: 50% Pinot Noir, 30% Chardonnay, 15% Vin Rouge, 5% Meunier
Tasting Notes: A deep salmon colour, pretty string of bubbles. An elegant nose dominated by notes of peaches, roses and peonies. Lively on the palate, with initial apricot aromas and a red berry finish.

PRODUCER BACKGROUND
The Orban family started growing grapes in the village of Troissy, France, in 1770. At the end of the 20th century, the estate was sold to the Rapeneau family, which had been established in Champagne for more than a hundred years. They preserved and perpetuated the Orban family tradition and blended it into their own legacy.
Cellar master and oenologist Christophe Rapeneau now runs the House while his older son, Jean-François, is responsible for the sales and brand development. This is our flagship Récoltant-Manipulant producer.
