The latest release from Vilaura, fresh off a run of standout awards, is an absolute class act. Crafted from hand-harvested, whole-bunch pressed Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from the Wairau Valley, this elegant rosé spends a minimum of 36 months on lees before being hand-riddled and disgorged with a precise 2.0g/L dosage.
In the glass, it shows a subtle cherry blush and a fine, persistent mousse. Aromas of pomegranate and candied apple lead to a beautifully pure palate with mineral drive, hints of quince and brioche, and a subtle thread of raspberry-sherbet acidity. Extra brut and wonderfully dry, this is pitch-perfect as an aperitif, with light entrées, or alongside a delicate dessert.

The winery writes "A subtle cherry hue with a fine persistent mousse carrying aromas of pomegranate and candied apple. The palate leads a fine mineral persistence with hints of quince and brioche all layered over a fine seam of raspberry sherbet acidity. Extra brut in style, this dry Methode Traditionelle is best enjoyed as an aperitif, to accompany an entree course or paired with a delicate dessert."
