Food Pairings

This expressive rosé is a perfect match for dishes that balance richness and freshness. Its generous fruit and savoury depth pair beautifully with charcuterie and cured meats, while its bright acidity complements tuna tartare or grilled salmon. For something heartier, try it alongside roast duck or game birds with fruit glazes, or pair it with aged cheeses like Comté or Gruyère for a harmonious contrast of flavours. Its vinous structure also makes it a wonderful companion for spiced dishes or those with creamy textures, elevating every bite.

Technical Notes

Crafted entirely from Pinot Noir harvested from the chalky parcels of Les Cumaines in Villers-Marmery, this 2018 vintage is a masterclass in precision and purity. Using the traditional saignée method, the grapes underwent a short 16-hour maceration on skins before pressing — a demanding technique that imparts vivid colour, body, and aromatic depth. The wine was vinified entirely in stainless steel to preserve its bright fruit profile and mineral clarity, then matured 30 months on lees to build texture and complexity. It was disgorged in October 2022 with a low dosage of 1.5 g/L, allowing the expressive character of the fruit and terroir to shine through.
