This vibrant, crisp, rosé, a blend of traditional Champagne grapes — Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Pinot Meuniere — is as ideal for a holiday feast as it is for everyday enjoyment. In the glass, both the delicate effervescence and the pear, apple and soft cherry bouquets tickle the palate. Creamy and luscious, the wine has excellent structure and mouthfeel and lovely red berry-fruit flavors. A great aperitif, this versatile food wine really shines with seafood, shellfish, fowl, light meats and Asian cuisine.
