Details

One of the most famous Champagnes of Laurent-Perrier is without doubt the Cuvée Rosé Brut. This wine is especially praised among wine lovers for its intensely dusty bouquet, refined taste and gastronomic value. Aestheticians fall for the distinctive 17th century shape of the gold-rimmed pink label bottle in which this rosé is bottled. Unlike other rosé Champagnes that are created by mixing red and white wine, Laurent-Perrier's Cuvée Rosé Brut owes its beautiful salmon pink color to the so-called saignée technique. This means that, after very strict selection, only ripe and healthy pinot noir grapes are briefly soaked in an open barrel. The juice that escapes - also called bleeding - has then very carefully taken over a little color from the grape skins. The pinot noir comes from ten Grand Cru plots from the highest rated villages in the region such as Ambonnay, Bouzy, Louvois and Tours-sur-Marne. After color extraction, the effluent is fermented in the traditional way into a Champagne, which then undergoes four years of aging in the bottle and acquires a creamier structure without losing the fruit aromas. The Cuvée Rosé Brut therefore has a flawless and crisp fresh scent of strawberries, raspberry and black cherries. The same rich fruit aromas are also reflected in the taste and the long-lasting round and creamy finish. It makes this wine delicious as an aperitif, an inimitably delicious accompaniment to charcuterie or poultry and an elegant charmer alongside red fruit desserts. A real "vin de plaisir" therefore, a party for and at any occasion.
