This Rosé by JM Sélèque uses grapes grown
in seven villages of the Valée de la Marne and
Côte des Blancs. In the blend, it is expected
that 10% comes from Meunier wine left
to macerate on the skins and 5% from red
wine based on Pinot Noir. 40% of the total is
obtained from reserve wines aged in wood.
The nose captures delicate aromas of small
berry red fruits on a broader fruity background
and good minerality. On the palate, it
is denoted by great vivacity and freshness,
highlighted by a pleasant and captivating
bubble. It confirms the red fruit (pomegranate
also emerges) and typical mineral tones.
The Davidoff Limited Edition 2022 Gran Toro
is characterized by a strength slightly higher
than the canons of the brand and by aromas
of black pepper, seasoned wood, and
leather, all combined with spicy sensations
halfway through the cigar. A flavor profile
that finds a perfect balance with the fruity
background of Solessence Rosè and with
the liveliness of its minerality and bubble.
