A creamy edge envelopes the refreshing mango, peach and nectarine flavors in this inviting rosé. Underpinnings of wet stone, white pepper and herb give depth along the finish. Grenache, Rolle, Syrah, Cinsault and Tibouren.
The color is rather intense salmon with plenty of tiny and vivacious bubbles. Quite extravagant on the nose, developed and mature as one might expect from an almost ten years old sparkling. We can find hay, dried herbs, flowers - almost like being on the lawn in the summer, some noble wood, balsamic and yeasty notes. Dry on the palate, vibrant, medium bodied, with intense character and touch of tannic grip. This is certainly not a classic aperitif-style sparkler but one that goes nicely with warm first courses and fish. In top condition.
A mouthwatering rosé Champagne, with a fine, lively mousse and a delicate skein of spice unraveling through the flavors of white peach, blood orange granita, saffron and almond biscotti. Offers a lingering, chalk-tinged finish. Disgorged November 2016. Drink now through 2022.
Has a nose of toasted almonds, honey-drizzled peaches and baking bread plus suggestions of apple blossoms and allspice. Medium-bodied, it delivers plenty of stone fruit and savory flavors with a racy line and good length.
