Champagne Laurent Perrier Cuvée Rosé Brut NV

Montagne de Reims, Champagne, FranceLa Cuvée Rosé, one of the bestselling rosé champagnes in the world, and one of the few still made using the saignée method, was first released in 1968. It is 100 percent pinot noir and is a combination of 10 different crus in Montagne de Reims. After a 48 to 72-hour maceration, and fermentation, it spends a minimum 60 months en tirage. Nuances of cherry, raspberry, pink florals, and smokey Earl Grey tea, this is bright and pure and framed with a grippy riff of fine tannins that frame the streaming flow along the palate. Elegant and timeless, this shines as an aperitif as well as with food (think salmon, poultry), and will also benefit from time in the cellar.Tasted: 09 December 2017Tasted by: Prices:
