Winemaking and ageing
Ballerine comes from the Limoux region, an exceptional terroir for the production of sparkling wines, which were first created at the Abbey of Saint Hilaire in 1531. This terroir sits at altitude, close to the Pyrenean mountain range, lending this brut rosé its airy character. The winemaking and blending of Ballerine, crafted primarily from Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, place great emphasis on freshness and tension, evoking the lightness of a ballerina.
Tasting note
The colour of the delicate pale robe pays tribute to that
of the sunsets that can be admired from the rooftops
of the Opéra Garnier in Paris. Radiant, it features
golden highlights. The delicate bubbles give this crémant
a persistent mousse. The nose, powerful and straight, reveals
subtle and indulgent aromas, with notes of red fruits
and white flowers. The attack on the palate is precise
and elegant, the aromas are of great complexity. Brioche
notes blend with fruity notes of strawberry and
raspberry. The finish lingers on soft and
creamy notes
