Tarlant, L'Aerienne Prestige Millesime Rose Brut Zero it is positively stunningThis bottle of the 2004 Brut Nature Ros l'Arienne was disgorged in January 2019, and it was still a little tight after its recent disgorgement when I tasted it at the winery, unfurling in the glass with a shy bouquet of red berries, licorice, orange rind and warm bread. On the palate, it's medium to full bodied, chiseled and incisive, with a taut, tensile core and a chalky finish.
