Notes:
BLEND : Lenoble Rosé Vintage is one of the very rare Rosés to combine elegance with the richness of red fruit aromas. The secret is a unique, highly original blend of about 85% Chardonnay Grand Cru and 15% Pinot Noir Premier Cru vinified as a red wine. Made only in the years when Mother Nature has been generous enough to offer grapes in a very healthy state, our ROSE is always a vintage champagne. Ample and rounded, it is only very lightly dosed, at around 5 g/l.
VISUAL ASPECT : A salmon-pink, rose-petal hue with dense bubbles and light foam.
NOSE : The first nose is overwhelmingly fresh with scents of Provence (figs), leading into notes of red fruit set off to perfection by citrus hints. The bouquet evolves to reveal an enticing range of aromas, from fruit (redcurrants, raspberry, strawberry, cherry, fig, hazelnut and almond) to citrus (lemon and grapefruit) and floral notes (rose, acacia, violet …).
ON THE PALATE : Fruity and well balanced. Nice freshness followed by rounder notes of red fruits. Excellent length. Pure and clean in mouth thanks to the high and unique proportion of Chardonnay and the very light dosage.
SERVING SUGGESTIONS : The rounded, elegant qualities of the Vintage Cuvée Rosé allow any amount of bold combinations. Its flavours and colour are ideal with fine slices of cured ham or with salmon. For dessert, try it with red fruit, such as a strawberry soup with balsamic vinegar, or a light raspberry mousse. As an aperitif, serve at 9°C, and with a meal at around 11 °C
