Champagne Cuvée Alexia Rosé

Cuvée Alexia is not any usual Rosé Champagne. First of all, the base is almost entirely Chardonnay, about 90%, and only the remaining portion is Pinot Noir, with the addition of a particular red wine Coteaux Champenois, an AOC (the French equivalent of our DOC), from the same area of Champagne but that includes still wines. The red wine added before bottling for frothing, a minimum of 36 months, gives Cuvée Alexia a fascinating light pink color. A feature of great elegance for a wine that can otherwise count on a floral bouquet, with notes of rose petals, and fruit, especially wild strawberries. On the palate it has the same pleasant sweetness that characterizes the bouquet, with a silky and pleasantly fresh finish. If you are looking for the right glass to pair with your seafood dinner, this could be the solution.
