This perfectly playful Brut Rose is full of charm, elegance and delight. Its heady sweet baked red berry aromas, pink grapefruit, violets, nutmeg, toffee, flinty minerals and buttered toast tickles the senses as you pour it into the glass. Bright acidity compliments the red raspberry and strawberry preserve, rhubarb, peach blood orange, candied grapefruit, toasted almonds, ginger and pastry cream that finishes in a lingering way in a saline brioche butterscotch bite.
It’s full of bright sassy little bubbles that dares you to keep in celebrating the sparkling moment.
