Princes Rosé

The Princes Rosé from De Venoge is made entirely from Pinot Noir. The grapes come from the Grande and Petite Montagne de Reims, which give the wine minerality and structure. Selected parcels in Les Riceys add fullness. It belongs to the line of the Cuvée des Princes, which Joseph de Venoge created in 1864 in honour of the Princes of Orange. The bottle takes its shape from the aristocratic crystal decanters of the early 20th century.

Red currants and strawberries show in the glass, along with a fresh citrus note. That makes it a lively aperitif. At the table it goes well with salmon, whether cured or pan-fried, and with lobster. Pour it at 8 to 10 °C in a tulip glass or a small white wine glass. It comes in a gift box.
