Veuve Clicquot Brut Rosé

A bright rose Champagne that shows good cut and integration, with flavors of pink grapefruit sorbet, ripe white raspberry, toasted brioche and oyster shell riding the finely textured mousse. Minerally. Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Pinot Meunier. Drink now.

"This has the bright savor of a strawberry dipped in sea salt. It's light, with a hint of smokiness to balance the fruit. Together with the fine bubbles, that fruit savor will clean up after cured sausages and other charcuterie."

Salmon skin color. Energetic, floral nose offers finely etched apple and pomegranate scents, along with delicate mineral and jasmine nuances. Dry, stony and fresh, with precise, fairly deep pear, rhubarb and subtle red berry flavors. Finishes on a dusty, mineral note, with very good length.
