Moët & Chandon Rosé Gold Fairy Champagne, 75 cl

A change in label really lifts Moet & Chandon's Rose and turns it into a wonderful gift (although I'd never turn down a bottle of Champagne anyway!) The colour is a glowing pink with dominant red tones and purple highlights. The aromas are intense and irresistible, a lively bouquet of fresh red summer berries (strawberry, raspberry, red currant) with floral nuances (rose, hawthorn) and a light peppery touch. The palate is flamboyant, combining intensity and roundness : fleshy and juicy at first, then firm (fruit stone), with a subtle mint finish.
