Tasting Notes

On the eye, a soft blush of pink is enhanced by pearlescent bubbles. On the nose, delicate notes of tangy candy blend harmoniously with red fruit fragrance such as strawberry and raspberry. On the palate, notes of grenadine and red fruit come to full expression, evoking a nostalgic sense of gourmet delight, while a refreshing lightness maintains a beautiful balance. 

Winemaker's Notes

Discover a burst of red fruit with our Essential Rose, a refined blend that delights the senses. Made from the year's Crus, reserve wines, and a touch of Pinot Noir vinified in red, it brings out the best in the Chardonnay, achieving a perfect balance between freshness and fruitiness. This masterful blend of red and white grape varieties highlights the Maison's expertise.
