2015 Domaine Ratron Clos de Cordeliers Crémant De Loire Rosé
This wine is made from 100% Cabernet Franc from their enclosed estate vineyards. As with all Cremants it is made in the traditional Champagne method where the secondary fermentation takes place in the bottle. And while cremants traditionally spend about 9 months aging in the bottle with the lees, this wine spend 72 months.
Pale salmon in color the nose is full of fruity and delicate aromas upfront like apricot, peach and cherry, followed by hints of more exotic fruits like mango and guava. The foam is soft, creamy, and very festive for the season that we are entering now. On the palate you have fine bubbles and citrus notes while the finish reveals hints of tangy red berries which is really that Cabernet Franc coming through.
