Brut Rosé 2013

The Deutz Rosé 2013 is a vintage champagne, so the grapes come from a single year. In the glass it shows a pale colour with coppery highlights. The nose recalls freshly picked red fruit, with wild flowers and a fine note of ginger that gives the rosé its own spice.

On the palate it feels full-bodied, energetic and crystalline. Precision and elegance are what set it apart from a purely fruity champagne. Serve it at 9 to 11 °C in a white wine glass or a tulip glass, where the aromas open up better than in a narrow flute. Salmon, tuna or lightly spiced Asian dishes make good partners, picking up the ginger in the wine. It comes in a gift box, included in the price.
