I am not a sparkler person, but I real enjoyed this one. The Rose was light and refreshing.

Celebrating Mother’s Day at my in-laws House. They enjoy Chandon, especially their high-end ones like this, but this was our first time with their rosé.

You aren’t confusing this for French, but goodness it is easy to sip on! Strawberry purée and orange citrus zest on the nose. Creamy and minuscule bubbles that became a bit reductive after time in the glass showing this was west coast. Strawberry limeade, rhubarb pie and mint leaf on the palate. Happy Mother’s Day everyone.

dress for excess: a special rosé bubbly must be paired with an appropriate shirt (strawberry-inflected, creamy Chandon "Étoile" Brut Rosé NV)

Plum, blackberry, strawberry, a lot of Pinot noir character, even some herbal notes. Still Pinot was added for color & body. A sturdy but delightful bubbly!
