The Van Loveren Christiena Trousseau Méthode Cap Classique Brut Rosé flows from delicate onion skin color into the glass and ensnares the nose with an immensely seductive aroma of aromatic wild strawberries, cranberry, ripe raspberries and crisp red apples. The palate is also caressed by fine berry flavors with subtle earthy hints in the background. A crisp drop with a hint of sweetness, which is accompanied by a creamy texture and a delicious mousse and brings pleasure of the extra class.

After the harvest, the Pinot Noir grapes were gently macerated on the whole bunch upon arrival in the cellar. The must spent only a short time on the skins to obtain the desired delicate pink color in the wine. This was followed by cold fermentation in stainless steel tanks. Once alcoholic fermentation was complete, the base wine spent eight months on primary lees to achieve optimal depth of flavor and a delicious mouthfeel. A mixture of yeast, sugar and wine was then added to this base wine (known as "liqueur de tirage"), which started the secondary fermentation in the bottle, which took place at a regulated temperature between 10-12 degrees Celsius, with regular turning of the bottles for a minimum period of 12 months.
