Description

The MV Rosé Fût de Chêne shows all of the richness and gamy intensity of Pinot Noir with a few years of age, along with the added complexity of 30% reserve wines that round out the blend. Rich and vinous in the glass, with remarkable nuance, the Rosé Fût de Chêne is a total knock-out. I especially like the juxtaposition of Pinot intensity with a sense of airiness and grace that is impossible to miss. The Rosé is built on a base of 80% Pinot Noir and 20% Chardonnay to which 6% of still Pinot is added. It is an incredibly versatile Champagne that it sure to please. I loved it.

Drink Guide
Appreciating wine can be enhanced even further if its stored and served correctly.

Wine, for the most part, is a peculiar beverage and everything form the way the bottle is stored, to the way its opened; the way the cork is pulled, the decanter thats used and the glass its served in, can have an immense effect on the outcome.
