Description

Pure and limpid with a bouquet of luminous red berry fruit and layers of measured intensity. On the palate redcurrants, raspberries and spring strawberries threaded with orange zest. The mousse is persistent and silky. Succulent and inviting, the extended lees time (18 months) imbues. Flavours of roasted hazelnuts and patisserie to the mid-palate. The acidity is cool and tempered, tapering to the pin-point dry finish. Krone Rosé Cuvée Brut delights in food that favours honest expression; from a simple picnic with slivers of charcuterie, crusty sourdough bread, ripe, melty Camembert. A tug-of-war between density and weightlessness, the structure lends itself to the refined too; salmon with crispy skin crackling and wild black rice to rolled porchetta, and duck with cherries.
