Libertine Rosé Brut, Crouch Valley, Essex

Libertine Rosé Brut from Crouch Valley, Essex, is a lively English sparkling wine that balances fresh red-berry fruit with crisp acidity and fine, persistent bubbles. Pale salmon in the glass, it opens with aromas of wild strawberry, raspberry, and a hint of citrus zest, followed by subtle floral notes and a touch of brioche from light lees aging. On the palate, bright acidity frames juicy red-fruit flavors and a clean, mineral finish, making it an approachable yet elegant choice for celebrations, light seafood, charcuterie, or simply as an aperitif.
