Petite Douceur Rosé

Petite Douceur is Gosset's extra dry rosé. It is made from 60% Chardonnay and 40% Pinot Noir, including 7% red wine. Malolactic fermentation is avoided to keep the fruit lively. After at least three years in the cellar, it shows strawberry and raspberry, with pink grapefruit and lemon as fresh counterpoints.

The slightly higher dosage than in the brut rounds out the wine without making it heavy. That is why it suits sweet dishes and sweet-and-sour cooking. Try it with raspberry or mandarin macarons, fruit tartlets or an iced soufflé with pink grapefruit. It is also a lovely idea for afternoon tea. Serve it at 8 to 10 degrees in a champagne tulip. We offer this cuvée here as a half bottle, just right for a tête-à-tête.
