Brut Rosé

The Brut Rosé from Pannier owes its salmon tint to 15 per cent red wine in an assemblage of 50 per cent Pinot Noir, 30 per cent Chardonnay and 20 per cent Pinot Meunier. Three years of ageing in the cellar have given it a round, inviting character without taking away the freshness. In the glass red fruit dominates, and on the palate it stays lively and fruity.

As an aperitif it is easy and well balanced. At the table it goes with salmon, whether cured or pan-fried until pink, and with fruity desserts. Serve it at 8 to 10 °C in a white wine glass or a tulip glass, where the fruit can open up nicely.
