De Chanceny Crémant de Loire Rosé Brut
This gleaming, pink-if-not-coral, Méthode Champenoise sparkler shows bright, red fruit and delicate but intense aromatic character. Think: ripe strawberry, Bing cherry, pink grapefruit, with an undertone of herbaceousness, and notes of ginger and spice–particularly cardamom. Lively but balanced, with fresh, yet subtle finish. Very good length with fine, persistent bubbles.
90% Cabernet Franc & 10% Grolleau Noir
