Tarlant L'Aérienne Rosé Brut Nature 2004, 75 cl

This impressive rosé Champagne exudes charming yet intense notes of sweet wild raspberries, dried figs, and a hint of plum compote, accompanied by delicate herbal notes, a touch of cedar, and a subtle smokiness. From the very first sip, L'Aérienne reveals itself to be full-bodied, complex, and decidedly wine-like. The sweet berry aromas reappear, despite the Champagne being zero dosage. The creamy mousse and lovely juiciness, paired with expressive minerality and earthy spice, make this Champagne a superb food pairing, especially with dark meat dishes or even oriental-inspired cuisine.
