Wine Description
The Story
It begins with a sumptuous and luminous pink appearance in a clear glass bottle. This is followed by the delicacy of the red fruit aromas, red currants, raspberries and strawberries fill your entire nose and palate. Its ample structure and suave allure complete your pleasure.
Rosé Champagne has always been a speciality of the House, thanks to a terroir blessed with old-vine plantings of Pinot Noir. Treated as a separate batch, these grapes are harvested separately over a two-day period, then sorted on a triage table before de-stemming and gentle crushing all under the watchful eye of the cellar master.
