Score: ✧✧✧✧ |
This wine shows a pale onion skin color and nuances of onion skin pink,
very transparent, good effervescence, fine and persistent perlage. The nose
reveals intense, clean, pleasing, refined and elegant aromas that start
with hints of raspberry, cherry and strawberry followed by aromas of yeast,
bread crust, blueberry, hazelnut, pink grapefruit, apple and plum. The
mouth has good correspondence to the nose, an effervescent and crisp
attack, however balanced by alcohol, good body, intense flavors, agreeable.
The finish is persistent with flavors of raspberry, cherry and plum. Cuvée
Imperiale Max Rosé is produced with the classic method and ages in bottle
on its lees for at least 18 months.
