2018 Champagne Plein Cadre
Champagne rosé
Refinement & Lightness
Presentation
The addition of 9% of still red wine, from the best Pinot Noir parcels of the house, brings to this cuvée a flamboyant colour and a beautiful tannic structure with bewitching aromas of blackcurrant and morello cherry. This Rosé is the ideal companion for salmon as an aperitif, but also for desserts with slightly sweet red fruits.

Tasting
Robe
This cuvée has an intense pink colour with light copper highlights. The bubbles are fine and brilliantly white.
Nose
Both greedy and fresh, the nose reveals aromas of small red fruits, redcurrant and grenadine. It then gives off aromas of candied cherry and strawberry jam.
Mouth-feel
The palate reveals a subtle balance between the aromatic power of the Pinot Noir and the freshness and elegance of the Chardonnay. The mouth is round and generous, supported by very silky tannins. Fresh notes of grapefruit bring a very pleasant acidic sweetness.
