Les Fioles Rosées – Maison Huguenot Tassin
An excellent aperitif but will equally flourish alongside a meal.
Territory:
This maceration rosé boasts a unique personality thanks to its production from a single plot, vintage, and top-quality practices.
The vineyards in the Côte des Bar region are characterized by clay and limestone soils.
Winemaking:
The wine is vinified using the traditional saignée method, which involves a short maceration (2-3 days) of the must in contact with the skins. It is a single-vintage cuvée, with its aromatic profile and colour reflecting the specific characteristics of the harvest year. The composition is 95% Pinot Noir and 5% Chardonnay, and it undergoes malolactic fermentation and vat vinification. The wine is aged 24 to 36 months with a dosage of 6 g/l for the brut style.
Tasting Notes:
The rosé is raspberry pink in colour and relatively fluid and satiny, featuring fine bubbles and a delicate collar. It starts with a frank and clean profile characterized by creamy effervescence. The palate offers pulpy and crisp fruit, underpinned by clay-marl minerality, adding texture and depth. The finish is slender, highlighted by taut raspberry acidity that enhances the fresh and vibrant fruity notes.
