The diverse terroirs impart distinct characteristics to the Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grapes, enhancing the complexity of the final blend.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eVinification \u0026amp; Aging Methods\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eCuvée Alexandra Rosé 2004 is a meticulous blend of 80% Pinot Noir and 20% Chardonnay. The Pinot Noir undergoes maceration on the skins to extract color and flavor, followed by co-fermentation with Chardonnay. The wine is aged on lees for a minimum of 8 years, allowing for the development of rich, complex flavors and a fine, persistent mousse. The dosage is carefully calibrated at 7 g\/L to achieve a harmonious balance between acidity and sweetness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eThis Champagne reveals a luminous pale salmon pink hue with a delicate, persistent effervescence.
