Dominique Portet LD Brut Rose Pinot Chardonnay

A mouth watering Sparkling Rose that finishes long, dry and savoury.

A blend of 55% Pinot Noir and 45% Chardonnay matured for 24 months on lees. Frothy mousse with a very pale salmon pink tinged colour and a fine, steady bead. Attractive strawberry, pear and yeast lees scents emanate out of the glass with some subtle baked bread notes also evident. Delicious pear and strawberry fruits carry a pillowy flow across the palate. Subtle baked bread, yeast lees and chalky mineral elements the undercard. Mouth watering acidity finishing long, dry and savoury.
Alc. 13%

Other Reviews…..
55/45% pinot noir/chardonnay. A minimum 24 months on lees, 5.8g/L dosage. A bright coral. A gentle and complex bouquet of small red fruits, floral scents and subtle light biscuit notes. The palate is super fresh and delicate, finishing dry and crisp. A lovely apéritif to drink now and over the next year or so.
