Veuve Olivier Sparkling Rose

TASTING NOTES | Stunning salmon-pink tones, very attractive color. Intense and fine, dominated by notes of red berries. The combination of fine bubbles and delicate aromas makes this wine a delightfully light and silky rosé. Aromas of red berries like cherries and strawberries, mellow & well-balanced.

FOOD PAIRINGS | Serve as an aperitif or to complement red berry desserts, fruit salads, and some fruit pastries.

HARVEST | The basic wine is fermented at a low temperature. The second fermentation takes place at 14°C for 2 weeks, followed by dosing. The Brut is a blend of Ugni Blanc and Airen while the Rose actually uses the Spanish varietal Bobal. 

SOIL | The soil for the Blanc is predominately chalked, while the Rose grows in clay & limestone.

VINIFICATION | The grapes are harvested mechanically and pressed directly. Alcoholic fermentation takes place under controlled temperature.
