Tasting:

A young Rosé born from a blend of Pinot Noir Ier Cru vinified with Coteaux de Champenois Rouge and Chardonnay Ier Cru. Upon tasting the silky power of Pinot Noir rings true and the hue is pale pink with salmon notes.

 

A beautiful, flowing effervescence with abundant mousse. The nose is discreet, but opens quickly with aromas of berries, particularly strawberry with aspects of plum confiture.

The mouth is expressive, fresh and full. The finish is seductive with notes of red berries and strawberry sauce.

 

A champagne to serve as an aperitif, but especially with game birds (quail, duck, pheasant) or fruit-based desserts.
