The Champagne Cuvée des Caudalies Rosé from de Sousa consists of 90% Chardonnay and 10% Pinot Noir and impresses with its salmon pink colour and fine mousseux. The nose is dominated by fruity notes such as wild raspberries, rose hips and cherry stone, accompanied by floral hints and spicy notes such as cinnamon and clove. On the palate, the rosé convinces with its spiciness and tart fruit, making it a perfect companion for autumnal and wintry dishes such as venison salami, hare ragout or monkfish with red wine butter.

Tasting note from from 27.08.2012, Copyright Christina Hilker

10% Pinot Noir aged for one year in barriques give this rosé its beautiful colour. The Chardonnay, which dominates with 90%, is vinified in small barrels. Through the so-called Bâtonnage, i.e. regular stirring, it gets a very special characteristic rounded elegance.

Color/Look

Salmon pink with delicate violet reflections. Broad, very fine mousseux.

Nose

On the nose, the Champagne Cuvée des Caudalies Rosé from de Sousa is full of character. Fruity notes such as wild raspberries, rose hips, quince bread and cherry stone mingle with animating floral hints reminiscent of roses, elderberry pulp, tree bark and forest foliage. The distinctive impression is pleasantly enhanced by spicy notes such as cinnamon and clove.

Palate

Spice is also what the Champagne Cuvée des Caudalies Rosé by de Sousa conveys on the tongue. This impression in combination with the tart fruit makes it a pleasant exception and the perfect food companion of autumnal and winter cuisine.
