Tsarine Rosé Vintage 2003
Such nectar is produced only in years of perfect ripeness in a limited quantity. The final blend, nearing absolute perfection, is born from imagination, from spontaneity, but also from endless patience.
The nose opens up with fragrances of blackcurrant, pastry, and enhances the finesse on the palate, like the glistening purity of the morning dew. The 2003 harvest was distinguished by the excellence and the equilibrium of its perfectly ripened grapes.
During the creation of the Tsarine Rosé 2003, bottled in June 2004, we retained a new option leaving the beautiful share to the Pinot Noir, which was vinified separately; white then Rosé and red followed by the assembly.
