Champagne Cuvee Premiere Rose Brut AOC - Chassenay D Arce
 
The champagnes of the Chassenay d'Arce maison are a vivid expression of the terroirs of the Côte des Bar. It could not be otherwise for this Brut “Cuvée Rosé”, a blend in which pinot noir and chardonnay are enriched with small percentages of pinot meunier and blanc, capable of give interesting olfactory nuances. After harvesting, the grapes are vinified in steel and then remain on the yeasts for 4 years before disgorgement and bottling operations. The interesting thing is that, before the final bottling, 13% of red wine is added to the Cuvée, obtained from the grapes owned by the Maison. Thus is born a Rosé that reflects the talent and motivation of all the people, from the winemakers to the cellar technicians, who are behind the work carried out daily by the Chassenay d'Arce maison.

Tasting Notes: It presents itself to the eye with a light salmon pink color, with a fine and delicate perlage. The nose is expressive, round and warm, with notes of berries, jam and delicate spices. In the mouth it has a direct but elegant attack, in which there is a flavor of berries; the sip is truly silky.
 
Pairings: Excellent at aperitif time, it is also worth trying with desserts: amazing with a classic pavlova.
