With a history that dates back to 1531 and years of great sales volume in our store, St.-Hilaire has finally added a sparkling Rose to their line-up. As with its stable mate, St. Hilaire's Brut Rose is sourced from the acclaimed Laguedoc-Roussillon region of southern France. The grapes; 70% Chardonnay, 20% Chenin Blanc and 10% Pinot Noir are from select high elevation vineyards. The "prise de mousses" or second fermentation occurs slowly in the bottle and the wine is then given another 12 months aging on the lees. In the glass one finds a pale salmon pink liquid graced with strands of pin point bubbles, while the taste buds are treated to tangy impressions of raspberries and wild strawberries complemented by hints of brioche and brown spices in its pleasingly dry finish. Looks like St. Hilaire has another hit on its hands!
