Champagne, FranceLa Cuvée Rosé, the world's top selling rosé champagne, is as recognizable for its distinctive bottle shape as for its smouldering red fruit profile. Entirely pinot noir, this was sourced from 10 villages in Montagne de Reims, primarily Grand Crus. It spent up to three days in contact with skins before bleeding off (saignée), and spent a minimum of 60 months on lees before a disgorgement around 9 g/L. Strawberry, red apple, cherry wraps around a brioche core, with light toast and an ample lees base, kissed with meringue, and finishing with soft spice. Very friendly, safe, and approachable, it's easy to see why this is such a big seller.Tasted: 23 October 2023Tasted by: Prices:

It spent up to three days in contact with skins before bleeding off (saignée), and spent a minimum of 60 months on lees before a disgorgement around 9 g/L. Wild strawberries, raspberries, pomegranate, cherry blossoms fill the complete, dense, and subtly creamy palate, with a generous lees cushion, offset by poised, humming acidity. There's a lovely chalky underlay here, shimmering under the red fruit above, and lingering on the lengthy finish. For a wine of this reach, it certainly achieves what it sets out to.Tasted: 22 October 2021Tasted by: Prices:

Champagne, FranceThe LP La Cuvée Rosé is a highly sought after pink fizz and one of the few still made using the saignée method. It was first released in 1968 and is made with pinot noir picked from 10 different crus in Montagne de Reims. Three days of skin contact set the colour and tannin required to sustain 60 months en tirage. In the end it’s the attractive cherry, raspberry, citrus that appeals. Fresh, and as bright as it is, there’s enough structure and acidity to take on a variety of menu items. Think wild salmon lox or grilled turkey. I often cellar this wine three to five years for even better results.Tasted: 02 November 2018Tasted by: Prices:
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:
