AOC Saumur Rosé
Cabernet and Grolleau grapes create an excellent taste of summer. This extraordinary rosé is perfect as an aperitif and with grilled light meats or poultry.
Type of wine :
Fine French dry rosé sparkling wine. An easy to drink wine with a delicate pink tone achieved through brief maceration of the Cabernet Franc and Grolleau grapes.
75% Cabernet Franc , 25% Grolleau.
Subsoil type :
A chalky subsoil, known locally as "tuffeau". The minerals in this soil play a vital role in creating wines with a fine sparkle. Another characteristic of this chalky layer is its ability to absorb the sun's warmth by day and diffuse it by night.
Vinification :
Selection of grape juices during extraction. Mastery in the choice of yeast and the blending of the cuvée by the cellar master. The characteristic sparkle develops during the second fermentation in the bottle. We also allow the wine to mature in our cellar for longer than the statutory provisions require.
Tasting notes :
Pale pink in colour, clear and bright with a fine, rich mousse. A light, fine bouquet of almonds and red berries. A wonderful balance of the lively and the delicate. A first-rate summer wine, best served at 6°C. Complements light meals, white meat and poultry. Also very pleasant as an aperitif.
