About Côte des Bar
Champagne
SparklingPinot Noir dominates, with some Chardonnay and Meunier.
Pinot Noir can give the wines a generous fruit character. Blends and single-village wines both feature here.
Still rosé
RoséPinot Noir only.
Dry, with red-berry flavours and more depth than many pale rosés. Some bottles develop dried-fruit and spice notes with age.
