This Rosé Blanc cuvée, by Pertois-Moriset, is an exceptional champagne in terms of its blend, freshness, finesse and fruitiness.
This champagne is a blend of 92% Chardonnay from Chouilly, Cramant, Oger and Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, terroirs classified as Grand Cru in the Côte des Blancs, and 8% Pinot Noir from Bouzy, a terroir classified as Grand Cru in the Montagne de Reims, renowned for its superb red wines.
This cuvée, vinified in stainless steel vats and oak barrels, is composed of 70% of the year's wines and 30% of perpetual reserve wines. These reserve wines are kept in foudre and stainless steel vats.
As with our other cuvées, malolactic fermentation is blocked in order to preserve the wine's beautiful acidity, freshness and tension, resulting in a longer, more saline finish.
The bottles are aged for a minimum of 30 months on laths, and the wine is dosed Extra-Brut, at 3 g/L to preserve a balanced, fresh wine.
The nose is in harmony with the palate, expressing notes of summer white flowers, lychee, vine peaches, acacia honey, wild strawberry and blueberry, then opening on accents of burlat cherry and bergamot. The finish is very mineral and persistent.
This Rosé Blanc cuvée by Pertois-Moriset is ideal with gravelax salmon, Marennes-Oléron oysters, truffle-flavored white meats or limoncello-flavored lemon tart.
