Alexandra Rosé Millésimé is a rare and sought-after wine that comes from a rigorous selection from the best plots, an exceptional marriage between the Pinot Noir Grands Crus and Chardonnay.

THE VINTAGE

The 2012 wine year was complicated with winter and spring frosts, hail and cryptogamic diseases, which had an impact on the yield, which was rather moderate. The dry, sunny summer allowed the grapes to ripen to perfection allowing for an exceptional harvest.

TASTING NOTES

On the eye: A deep blood orange color with very fine, persistent bubbles.

On the nose: A complex nose with notes of red fruits (crushed strawberries).

On the palate: A rich, warm wine with red fruit aromas and a bitter orange finish.

PAIRING

Lamb, vegetable ravioli, spicy green juice
