Laurent-Perrier : Cuvée Rosé
In-Stock
Description
The intense freshness of an exceptional rosé champagne
The estate
Founded in 1812, the Champagne Laurent-Perrier House entered its golden age from 1948 onwards, thanks to the drive of Bernard de Nonancourt. Under the impetus of this visionary businessman, the house distinguished itself by crafting cuvées that reflect its values of excellence and innovation.
From its very beginnings, the house has built its identity around Chardonnay. Through the freshness and finesse it brings to the blend, this grape variety defines the style of this benchmark of Champagne.
Maison Laurent-Perrier expresses its avant-garde spirit notably through Grand Siècle and its multi-vintage blends, its Ultra Brut in a "zero dosage" style, and Cuvée Rosé, the first maceration rosé champagne in its category. These so-called "ground-breaking" cuvées, each creation of which is an event, mark with their originality a new chapter in the history of Maison Laurent-Perrier and its quest for excellence, which has earned its international renown.
The values so dear to Bernard de Nonancourt find their quintessence in the Laurent-Perrier cuvées, unanimously recognised by connoisseurs.
The vineyard
Laurent-Perrier Cuvée Rosé is made exclusively from Pinot Noir sourced from the finest Crus of the Montagne de Reims, the emblematic terroir of Champagne.
The wine
A symbol of the boldness of a family-spirited champagne house led with passion, and a pioneer of the maceration rosé champagne category, the prestigious Laurent-Perrier Cuvée Rosé was born at the dawn of the 1968 vintage. Since then, this Rosé champagne has established itself as a benchmark among the greatest rosés produced in Champagne.
Winemaking and ageing
This bottle is the result of a highly technical production method: maceration. Once harvested, the grapes are destemmed and then placed in a maceration tank. In this tank, the juice macerates with the grape skins for 48 to 72 hours in order to draw out the aromatic expression of the finest Pinot Noir crus. The juice is then run off (separated from the skins), fermented and vinified in a separate vat. Cuvée Rosé benefits from 5 years of ageing in the cellars.
Grape variety
Pinot Noir (100%).
