Grande Sendrée Rosé

GRAPE VARIETY: 92% Pinot Noir, 8% Chardonnay

FOOD PAIRINGS: Ideal as an aperitif. To go with a saffron cream of mussels soup, a crayfish salad or a monkfish blancmange.  Serve at: 45°F.

TASTING NOTES: Complex nose opening onto notes of strawberry, raspberry and violets with toasted nuances. Round, supple, with a rather lively spinal column tightening the entity, the palate recalls red fruits; it is fresh and complex at the same time. A rich Champagne with great persistence.
