GARDET PRESTIGE CHARLES ROSE DE SAIGNE

Winery notes:

Premier Cru vines of Chigny-les-Roses.

For this vintage 2012, it will notably express itself by its strength in red fruit notes. A unique cuvee from our House, this ‘saignée’ expresses itself particularly through its powerful red fruit flavours and comes from our Premier Cru classified vines in Chigny-les-Roses to create this 2012 vintage. The “Saignée” process is the maceration of the Pinots Noirs and Meuniers together in concrete tanks together (max 48 hours) and then racking of the coloured juice, called “saignée”.

Optimal serving temperature is between 8 and 10°C (46 to 50°F)

COLOUR: A deep rosé with redcurrant highlights.

NOSE: Notes of candied cherries and spices (pepper, liquorice, medicinal plants) predominate. There is a hint of floral aromas (blackcurrant buds). It leaves an impression of harmony and finesse.

PALATE: The attack is lively and fresh. The structure leaves a velvety impression, enveloped by aromas of very ripe strawberry coulis and small red fruits (redcurrants, blackcurrants, Morello cherries). The texture is silky and well-balanced. The long, sensual finish is reminiscent of the blossoming of a rosebud.
