The Champagne
This exquisite and very elegant rosé champagne comes from one of the most prestigious houses of Champagne – Bruno Paillard. The assemblage consists of Pinot Noir in higher proportions and Chardonnay – the exact composition remains the house’s secret. The long maturation on lees (3 years) provides a very fine mousseux. The bouquet unveils enchanting scents of red berries, fresh bread crust and brioche, while each sip glides smoothly over the palate with a delicate minerality.
Tasting Note
- In the glass, a bright salmon colour with very fine strings of lingering bubbles.
- Scents of currants and slightly tart red berries that evolve into aromas of wild berries and violets.
- The palate is vibrantly fresh and straightforward, yet delicate. The fine, velvety mousseux draws a tingling trail of fine berry aromas across the palate. The crisp, clean finish reveals, one more time, the minerality of this exceptional champagne!
Pair with
- This champagne makes for an excellent aperitif.
- Bruno Paillard recommends pairing with lobster or mushroom dishes.
“Fine, refreshing, direct, delicate, it is the quintessential aperitif champagne… A lovely tasting moment.”
