Moritz OCT22: A rosé with a lot of character! The baroque style is characterized by a subtle smokiness and notes of cassis. With a little air everything gets a little fresher and a playful red fruit, mountain pine and dark cedar wood appear. The champagne also shows its complexity on the palate. The variety of aromas is carried by a playful acidity, which brings incredible tension. This is not a fresh and fruity summer rosé, but a champagne with a strong character, which is also a good accompaniment to food.

Winery description:

The initial nose reveals a velvety texture enhanced by notes of toasted bread, Bigarreau cherry, sloe, blackcurrant, cassis with aromas of peony and rose. As the champagne aerates, notes of candied blackberries, wild strawberries, blood oranges, licorice and peppermint are added.

The attack on the palate is soft and fresh, with a creamy perlage. The champagne develops an enveloping fruity substance supported by an acidity of pomelo and wild berries. The mid-palate shows harmony and a chiseled character between dry, fruity and woody substances. The juicier and airier finish picks up the aromatic richness with the precision of a finely extracted fruit juice.
