Edouard Brun, Champagne, L'Elegante Grand Cru Rose

A complexity that begins with small crunchy raspberries and floral notes. The palate is creamy, and the bubbles are very fine, which explode with notes of bramble.A devilishly seductive finish with menthol on chalk and a zesty finish.By combining the lightness and finesse of Chardonnay associated with the power and fruitiness of Pinot Noir, this harmony makes L'Elegante Grand Cru the ideal partner for those special moments in life.

The wine spends 48 Months on its lees

Additional Information: One of the original Grandes Marques of 1882, Domaine Edouard Brun is a small, family-owned House in the prestigious, Grand Cru village of Aÿ.

Today Edouard Brun’s Grandsons, Emmanuel and Philippe run the company and produce approximately 250,000 bottles annually (compared to Moet’s 30 million)

They own eight hectares of vineyards (accounting for around half their production) and grower contracts in place that permit a larger scale production than would otherwise be possible.

The Domaine produces wines that are rich and rounded in style, partly due to the use of neutral barrels for all Pinot Noir. Prolonged lees and bottle age are a hallmark of Brun's vintage wines, bringing autolytic and secondary flavours.
