Gerard Bertrand Cremant de Limoux Brut Rose

WINEMAKER'S NOTES
Ballerina is a tribute to elegance and grace. It reflects the contrasts of the terroir of Limoux, its altitude and the combination of the Mediterranean influences with the proximity of the Pyrenean Mountains. Limoux is where the first sparkling wines were born in Saint-Hilaire Abbey (1531). Ballerina is the Brut Etoile, as the Etoile is the French name for the Principal Dancer in the Paris Opera Ballet. The shape of the label refers to the tip of a dance slipper.

TASTING NOTES
The delicate pale rosé color is inspired by the sunset as seen from the rooftop of the Paris Opera. The bubble is delicate, frothy and persistent. The nose is generous and complex with subtle aromas of red berries and white flowers. The wine is precise and elegant, the flavors reflect the aromas perceived on the nose in a generous basket of red fruit on a bed of brioche. The finish is very long and rich with soft and creamy notes
