Le Grande Pavillon Brut Rosé
		Launched in December 2008, Le Grande Pavillon Brut Rosé is Boschendal's first Rosé Méthode Cap Classique. A variety of red cultivars were selected from Boschendal's finest vineyards and harvested at lower sugar levels to achieve the bracing freshness required for the making of the base wine for a fine Méthode Cap Classique. After pressing the red grapes, the juice was bled from the grapes immediately, resulting in the unique sunset-salmon hue of the base wine.
The base wine was bottled under crown-cap where it underwent secondary fermentation, spending 12 months on the lees before disgorgement.

The lees contact allowed the wine to grow in complexity, adding depth and a pronounced fruit structure, as well as a seductive brisk sparkle. Exceptionally pleasing on the eye as well as the palate, Le Grande Pavillon sparkles with versatility, making it ideal for enjoying on its own or in a bubbly and al fresco environment along with seafood, summer salads and chicken dishes.
