Tasting profile
Structure: light-bodied, high acidity, dry
A rosé Crémant de Limoux in extra brut trim — pale salmon in the glass, with wild strawberry and redcurrant lifted by pink grapefruit and a fine, persistent mousse. The very low dosage keeps it taut and dry rather than fruity, with a light brioche note picked up from time on lees.
