Champagne Les pépites du tablier Rosé de saignée

Little gems in an apron... The aproned legs come and go in the garden. Harvesting, collecting, pinching and picking what they think is nice or unusual, appetising or flavourful. The apron pocket gets stuffed with these colourful and scented treasures found along the garden alleys. Once in the house, the dining table reveals the loot. Original and flavourful, a little bit wild, this Rosé de Saignée possesses so many surprising aromas. What a fabulous garden indeed!

It is sometimes in the nooks and crannies of the garden that the most surprising discoveries are made. This wine is one of them.

Nose

Liquorice leads the way. The bouquet is a little smoky, then an almost animal aroma precedes a trace of spices such as thyme, cumin, paprika and nutmeg. And what comes next? Black fruit! Blackberries and Burlat cherries.

Mouth-feel

The mouthfeel also has surprises in store for us. It is saline, fresh, before revealing a lovely bitter note which makes this wine so unusual. It confirms the distinctive bouquet all the way to the finish, since spices and black fruits are found there as well. The marine finish whets the appetite.

For the table

And make the most of its elegant character for more gastronomic delight.

• Serve with smoked Italian charcuterie
• With fillet of duck breast grilled on the outside and rosy inside
• Or stuffed quail
• Or even by playing with the saltiness of sea urchins, razor clams, small crabs, etc.
