Appearance: A striking watermelon pink to deep shimmering raspberry dress with fine, persistent bubbles.
Aroma: Emanates a vinous bouquet of “blood orange, quince, raspberry, toasted nuts and herbs.”
Palate: Expect an explosion of fresh red fruits like wild strawberry, cranberry, and succulent cherry. It finishes long with balanced acidity, dynamic juiciness, and a subtle touch of savory spice.
Technical Specs: It is typically bottled as an Extra Brut or Brut with low dosage (often around 3.4 g/L), allowing the natural fruit and terroir to shine cleanly without excess sweetness. It is frequently made from a single vintage harvest even when sold without a vintage year stated on the front label.
