Varietal: 51% chardonnay, 49% pinot noir

Origin: Champagne, France

Producer's notes: Rose N°8 is crafted exclusively from the Grand and Premier cru vineyards of the Montagne de Reims, picked during the exceptional harvest of 2008. 8 years proved necessary for its creation: testimony to the great care that Champagne AYALA took in crafting this rare wine. Only 14 700 bottles of this limited edition cuvee were produced.

• Colour: A light shade of powder pink, clear and bright, with abundant bubbles. • Nose: Subtle, it is fresh and refined, revealing delicate aromas of strawberries, raspberries, blood orange and blackcurrant.

• Palate: The attack is precise and sharp, leading to a subtle, tightly knit palate, featuring a lot of freshness and finesse. Notes of red berries and Bartlett pear, showing remarkable minerality through chalk and graphite notes.

• Finish: Delicate and fine, it is elegant with a sophisticated finish, like a finely crafted, mineral lace.

On top of being a perfect summer apéritif, ROSÉ N°8 can perfectly accompany sophisticated cuisine. Provenance and purity are keywords in finding the perfect match: a summer salad of nasturtiums, duck aiguillettes à l’orange, a salmon filet cooked rare with a miso sauce or a red fruit salad would be perfect.
