Tasting Notes
This cuvée shows subtlety and depth, the colour is a gentle pink with salmon notes. Its fine elegant nose offers ripe black cherry fruit supported by lightly toasted notes. In the mouth the flavours are full and well rounded, with aromas of red fruit opening up. There are light, minty notes underlined by touches of grilled almond that flatter the palate. The crisp finish gives the whole wine a fresh, clean lift.
Food Matches
This Rosé champagne is perfect with warm fruit tarts, clafoutis, or other fruit desserts; and as an aperitif.
