Champagne Canard-Duchene Grande Cuvee Charles VII Rose

Enjoy it now, or cellar for several years. No need to decant before serving.

A stunning pink with veins of copper in the glass, the Charles VII Rosé is loaded with scents of strawberry, raspberry, red currant, and hints of rose petals. It represents the pinnacle of rosé from the Champagne region, created with 50% Pinot Noir, 40% Chardonnay, and a smaller portion of Pinot Meunier.

Champagne Canard-Duchêne is the result of a love story, founded in 1868 by Victor Canard, a barrel maker, and Léonie Duchêne, a grape grower. It can be found in the heart of Montagne de Reims and utilises classic Champagne grapes from all across its home region and the Côte des Blancs.

This Rosé is the perfect option for romantic occasions and special celebrations, or to be used as an aperitif before a gourmet meal. It exhibits an elegant, moussey palate, with detailed flavours of sour red cherry, lemon curd, red currant, and small purple flowers. A fifth of the blend is composed of top-class reserve wines, held over from previous harvests. An uplifting acidity courses through each sip, paired with a distinct minerality in the aftertaste, reminiscent of the limestone-rich soils of the region. It will pair wonderfully with light dishes, such as seafood, salads, or fruit-based desserts.
