Bouvet Ladubay

Excellence Brut Rosé

The Wine. Bright salmon pink in color with fine bubbles and a pleasant mousse. The fresh raspberry, red currant and peach on the nose is given structure on the palate with black currant and quince, earthy notes and fine herbal piquancy.

The Winery. Since 1851, Bouvet Ladubay has been one of France’s greatest producers of méthode traditionnelle sparkling wine, using Cabernet Franc for their rosé. For Bouvet Ladubay, wine is a living art that must be practiced with wisdom, uniting tradition, experience and the most finely tuned technology in the creation of refined, handcrafted wines of impeccable quality and consistency.
