Notes | |||
"Lively and generous Nectar Impérial distinguishes itself by its extravagant fruitiness, its density on the palate and its crisp finish that instantly surprise and delight. Nectar Rosés assemblage is built on the intensity of Pinot Noir, the fruitiness of Pinot Meunier, and the freshness of Chardonnay. Its red color is sustained and nuanced with coppery shades. Its aromas are intense and deep with ripe berries (wild strawberry, blackberry, black currant) and cherry, nuanced by herbal and heady flowers notes. On the palate it is a succulent blend of richness and elegance, density and creaminess, extreme fruitiness and vibrant freshness." —winemaker |
Critical Acclaim | |||
"Creamy, with honeyed flavors of passion fruit, guava and spice that show a hint of candle wax. There's good intensity to the acidity in this exuberant rosé, and it just balances the tropical overtones, with an off-dry, moderate finish. Drink now." —Alison Napjus, Wine Spectator |
