Laurent Perrier Cuvee Rose Champagne

Laurent Perrier Cuvee Rose Champagne

Since 1968, Laurent‑Perrier has developed the mastery of a very particular and rare know-how in Champagne: maceration. This process makes it possible to obtain the richest and most subtle expression of Pinot Noir. This wine is characterized by its ripe red fruit aromas, a high intensity and great freshness.

In 1968, Paris was in turmoil and Laurent‑Perrier dropped a paving stone by launching a wine that was as surprising as it was creative: Cuvée Rosé in its shield bottle. Remember, more than 50 years ago, rosé champagne was not in vogue… Thanks to an uncommon spirit of innovation, Bernard de Nonancourt paved the way for a new generation of champagnes and gave its noble credentials to the category of rosé champagnes, by choosing a completely new wine, a maceration rosé.

The grapes from carefully selected plots are sorted and destemmed before vatting. Maceration – lasting from 48 to 72 hours depending on the harvest – helps in the extraction of colour and allows us to obtain unequalled aromas, revealing all the richness of the best Crus of Pinot Noir.
