Description
What kind of wine is it
Perrier-Jouët Blason Rosé is an intense Brut Rosé Champagne, with a vinous and refreshing character. Created through a skilful blend of Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier and Chardonnay, it displays a salmon pink hue enlivened by a fine and lively perlage. The palate is full and generous, evoking aromas of wild strawberry and bergamot, accompanied by buttery and vanilla notes. Ideal paired with haute cuisine dishes, it finishes with delicate hints of hazelnut.
Where does it come from
This Champagne originates from a geographical mosaic of fifty different crus, spread across the Côte des Blancs, Vallée de la Marne and Montagne de Reims areas. The careful selection of terroirs balances the wine's elegance with a solid structural framework. The famous chalk cellars of Épernay ensure a constant maturation underground. This unique environment shapes a distinct identity, where natural freshness interacts with a broad and well-defined fruity component.
How is it produced
Production strictly follows the Traditional Method, ensuring excellent secondary fermentation in the bottle. The ageing on the lees lasts for at least 36 months, a crucial period for imparting depth and prolonged persistence. This extended contact refines the blend's structure, harmoniously integrating citrus and ripe fruit aromas with elegant toasted notes. The palate is remarkably balanced, offering a fresh and clean finish.
History and Curiosities
Founded in 1811, Maison Perrier-Jouët signs this cuvée of historic elegance, appreciated even by Napoleon III. The Blason Rosé is born from the harmonious blending of fifty crus and matures for at least 36 months in the historic chalk cellars of Épernay, a UNESCO World Heritage site. This period of ageing on the lees gives the Champagne extraordinary refinement, making it a masterpiece celebrated at prestigious competitions such as the Decanter World Wine Awards. A true oenological gem, specifically conceived to enhance and complement haute cuisine.
