- A delicate and dry sparkling rosé offers abundant red fruit notes and subtle floral hints through a creamy texture. Pale blush in colour, the nose offers abundant notes of red fruits and subtle floral hints of rose. It is a delicate wine with a dry palate, persistent, even bubbles, and a wonderful fruit sensation enveloping the creamy texture.
The hand-harvested grapes were destemmed and gently crushed before undergoing a cold maceration to achieve the elegant and attractive pale pink colour. Fermentation occurred in stainless steel tanks lasting two weeks at 16 to 17°C to maximise the varietal aromas and flavours. After fermentation, the wine was clarified and stabilised, and then the liqueur de tirage was added prior to the secondary fermentation, which took place using the Charmat method. The wine remained on its lees for six months before the liqueur d'expédition was added and the wine was bottled.

Winery | The vineyard is situated in the Valle de Leyda, west of the Coastal Mountain range, 14 kilometres from the Pacific Ocean. The cooling influence of the Pacific breezes and the summer morning coastal fog extends the grape's growing period. In the summer, the average temperatures rarely exceed 25°C, and this ensures that the grapes ripen slowly, developing fresh and intense flavours and aromas and a lower potential alcohol content. The Pinot Noir vines are planted in soils with a shallow clay surface profile and poor fertility, with a cracked clay sedimentary layer. The subsoil is decomposed granite rock and has a diverse mineral structure. |
