Formerly labeled "Premier Cru Rose Brut" Enjoy it now, or cellar for a few more years. No need to decant, serve slightly chilled. André Chemin winery is one of Champagne’s finest, a family-owned establishment with over 70 years of experience to draw from. It was founded in 1948 by André Chemin himself and is now led by third-generation wine-maker Sébastian and his wife Eva. Founder André Chemin was born and raised in Sacy, a village with mountainous terroir just a few kilometres south of Reims. This is one of the few Champagne communes that have been awarded the title of Premier Cru, a model example of what Champagne wines should taste like. This Brut Rosé is mostly made of Pinot Noir, with a splash of Chardonnay and Coteau Champenois, a still wine that adds a certain flourish to the delicious blend. It exhibits an intensely floral nose, packed with notes of white and pink flowers that eventually give way to scents of strawberry and raspberry. It’s a distinctly summery drink, bright and lively with a creamy, effervescent mouthfeel. Its flavours are driven by crisp red fruits. Red cherries and wild strawberries are evident, along with citrus elements and hints of whipped cream. It will be excellent as an aperitif, but this wine also has plenty of body. It can be paired with lobster, and salmon steaks, and will even stand up to a tender lamb chop.
