Introduction:
The NV Fresne Ducret “Spagyrie” Premier Cru Rosé is a finely crafted grower Champagne that balances expressive fruit with mineral precision. Elegant and complex, it showcases the depth and finesse that define Premier Cru fruit from the Montagne de Reims.

Terroir:
Sourced from Premier Cru vineyards in the village of Villedommange in the Montagne de Reims, this Champagne benefits from chalk-rich soils that provide freshness and linearity. The cool northern exposure maintains acidity, while the region’s limestone foundation imparts signature minerality and tension.

Appearance:
Delicate salmon pink with copper highlights; a steady stream of fine bubbles gives the wine brilliance and elegance.

Nose:
Enticing aromas of wild strawberry, raspberry, and red currant, accented by notes of blood orange, rose petal, and fresh brioche. Subtle hints of chalk and spice lend depth and refinement.

Palate:
Medium-bodied and poised, showing vibrant red berry fruit layered with citrus zest and gentle minerality. The mousse is fine and persistent, supporting a seamless interplay between freshness and creaminess. A hint of savory spice and chalky texture provides structure and lift.

Finish:
Long and graceful, with lingering notes of red fruit, biscuit, and saline minerality. The finish is both refreshing and mouth-coating, leaving a polished impression of purity and finesse.

Food Pairing Suggestions:

• Meat dish: Duck breast with pomegranate glaze or salmon tartare

• Vegetarian option: Roasted beet salad with goat cheese or grilled halloumi with citrus vinaigrette

• Cheese pairing: Soft bloomy cheeses like Brie de Meaux or Brillat-Savarin
