CHAMPAGNE ROSE BRUT BESSERAT DE BELLEFON 750 ml
CHAMPAGNE WHITETHE “VIBRANT AND SENSUAL”
SIGNATURE
INSPIRATION NOTES
Our Cellarmaster, Cédric Thiébault, historically sources the grapes for our Besserat de Bellefon Rosé Brut from the best villages of Champagne.
This cuvee is the fruit of a unique and very specific method of champagne making that has been perpetuated by Besserat de Bellefon since 1930. This consists of adding less “liqueur de tirage” a mix of sugar, yeast and must at the moment of bottling which creates a lighter, more diaphanous formation of effervescence.
“The Rose Brut cuvee is a celebration in the mouth. Delicate and gossamer light, its robe of pink muslin is like a sensual embrace. The nose is generous, intense and refined, studded with small red berries, with notes of redcurrant jelly and sweet almond. The finish is mouth-watering, bright and lightly spicy. ”
