Mandois Cuvee Victor Brut Rose 2012
France, Champagne AOC
Chardonnay, Pinot Noir
Description
This rose is crystalline pink reminiscent of the pulp of pink grapefruit with a long string of fine bubbles. Notes of lychee and red berries, with flavors of wild strawberry and crystallized violets flowers with hints of toasted almonds on the finish. This wine requires time to open up in the glass before tasting to reveal its many flavors.

Vineyard
The continental influence is responsible for favorable sunshine in the summer. The oceanic influence brings water in regular quantities with little annual thermal contrasts. This double influence offers the guarantee of a constant and moderate rainfall favoring an almost ideal water supply and essential to the quality of the grapes (average volume of precipitation = 700mm per year)
