Rosé
Grand Cru
Harvested by hand at perfect maturity, the Pinot Noirs that we vinify into red wine are adorned with a wide range of red fruits aromas while retaining the elegance of the Grand Cru terroir of Verzenay. Blended at 19% in this cuvée, the red wine gives this champagne an always delicate power to which the Chardonnay selected on our Grand Cru plots for is élégance and joy comes to offer its beautiful freshness as well as its great finesse. Is it the élégance of the power, or the power of élégance ??
