Description
What kind of wine is it
Alexis Lichine Crémant de Bordeaux Rosé Brut is a Brut rosé sparkling wine with a lively and balanced aromatic profile. Crafted from a refined blend of Chardonnay, Gamay and Pinot Noir, it displays a vibrant deep pink hue. The bouquet opens with fragrant notes of strawberry, raspberry, blackcurrant and rose petals. On the palate, it is dry and fresh, enlivened by a fine and persistent perlage that balances the fruity nuances with pronounced minerality and a subtle spicy finish.
Where does it come from
This sparkling wine is produced in France, in the heart of the Entre-deux-Mers, a renowned winegrowing area between the Dordogne and Garonne rivers, in the famous Bordeaux region. The characteristics of the land give the wine a clear flavour profile and a pleasant freshness. As an expression of the Crémant de Bordeaux area, it reveals a versatile and well-structured character. It is, in fact, an excellent accompaniment for delicate seafood starters, shellfish, salmon carpaccio or goat's cheese served with honey.
How is it produced
Production strictly follows the principles of the Traditional Method, involving a slow refermentation in the bottle that encourages a natural and optimal development of the bubbles. This process ensures the formation of an elegant effervescence and a solid structural harmony. Through this meticulous process, the Alexis Lichine winery endows the wine with remarkable ageing potential, capable of evolving and expressing new complexities over a period of five to ten years. It is recommended to serve it at a temperature of 6-8 °C.
