In Champagne, there are 2 methods for making a rosé champagne. The main one consists of adding red wine made in Champagne to the white wine before the second fermentation. But it is also possible to obtain a rosé champagne by macerating the grapes for a few hours. These champagnes are called: Rosé de Saignée.
Rosé de Saignée are made from black grape varieties (Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier). The winemaker macerates the grape skins with the juice. The anthocyanins contained in the grape skins then color the juice and give it this particular aromatic profile.
Rosé de Saignée are very expressive champagnes. On the nose, these are cuvées that evolve on the register of ripe red fruits. On the palate, one finds the power discovered on the nose. These are cuvées with a generous, fleshy texture. In the mid-palate, the entire aromatic palette is revealed. One finds notes of red fruits, small berries, but also sometimes notes of citrus fruits and even more gourmet nuances.
Rosé de Saignée champagnes are cuvées made for gastronomy. Their richness and power allow for surprising pairings. They can be paired with meats, slightly spicy dishes, smoked salmon, or even fruit desserts. They are champagnes that allow one to imagine interesting and creative pairings.
