Trouillard Elexium Rose Brut
Champagne Trouillard
France - Champagne   

Produced from 15 select parcels of vineyards that are mainly located in the Marne Valley, Sézanne area and Aube. 30-35% of reserve wines (from previous years) are incorporated in the blending.

The color is a seductive and beautiful salmon pink with fine and light bubbles. It offers complex aromas of small red berries. Well-structured, fresh and well-balanced in the mouth, Elexium shows finesse and delicacy.

I Wine Review"A salmon-colored Champagne with a nice fine, active bead. Yeasty nose with dried cherry and toasted oak notes. A creamy attack leads to a lightly flavored palate of fresh cherry and a crisp, dry finish."

Tanzer International Wine Cellar 89 Pts"Salmon-skin pink. Redcurrant, strawberry and white peach on the nose, with a light floral quality adding interest. Fresh and fleshy, offering bright red berry flavors and bracing minerality. Gains weight on the finish, which features a supple red berry preserve quality."
