Description
What kind of wine it is
Pierre Mignon's Champagne Rosé Brut is created from a skilful blend of Pinot Meunier, Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Crafted using the Traditional Method, it displays a delicate pale pink colour enhanced by bright salmon reflections. On the nose, it reveals an intense aromatic profile, with prominent notes of well-ripened red fruits such as strawberries, raspberries and Morello cherries, accompanied by subtle hints of sweet spices. On the palate, it is creamy and fresh, supported by a refined and perfectly integrated perlage. The finish is persistent and lively, with a pleasant harmony of fruity sensations.
Where it comes from
This wine originates from Le Breuil, in the heart of the Vallée de la Marne, one of the most renowned areas of the Champagne region. The Pierre Mignon winery, active since 1892, manages its own vineyards with great attention to the specific pedoclimatic characteristics of the area. The unique microclimate of this region enhances the potential of the grapes, giving this structured rosé a distinctive character and identity. The essence of the landscape is clearly expressed in the glass, bearing witness to the deep connection between the vines and their place of origin.
How it is produced
The production process involves a careful blend of the grapes, followed by secondary fermentation in the bottle as required by the rules of the Traditional Method. The remarkable complexity of the wine is the result of 36 months of ageing on the lees, a crucial resting period to develop a dense structure and a pleasant creamy texture. Finally, the dosage of 7 g/l defines the final balance, harmonising the freshness to elegantly accompany fish terrines, poached salmon or refined desserts based on red fruits.
History and Curiosities
The Maison Pierre Mignon, a historic family business founded in 1892 in Le Breuil, in the Marne Valley, has passed down the art of producing AOC Champagne with extraordinary charm. This elegant cuvée fully expresses the winery's artisanal tradition through rigorous vinification according to the traditional method. The skilful blend, made up of 70% Pinot Meunier and completed in equal parts by Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, matures patiently for 36 months on the lees. This ageing imparts exceptional harmony to the Rosé Brut.

The story begins in 1892, when Octave Mignon installed the first presses, laying the foundations of what was to become a renowned Maison de Champagne. Over the decades, each generation has contributed to shaping its identity, combining ancestral know-how with a constant quest for quality.
It was Pierre Mignon, however, who marked a decisive turning point in the company's development. Thanks to his vision and commitment, he firmly established Maison Pierre Mignon as one of the most prestigious names on the Champagne scene.
Today, the story continues with Céline and Jean-Charles Mignon, worthy heirs to this family passion, who carry on the work of their forebears, upholding the values and excellence of the House. Read more
