The Cellar Master seeks ampleness and structure in this cuvée, in search of a gourmet blend which must nevertheless retain a certain
freshness. A marriage which demands the precision of a specialist in order to bring out the elegance of style that is the hallmark of PerrierJouët champagne. The choice of Crus is carefully adjusted according to the harvest. An addition of 12 to 15% of reserve wines creates
the consistency required to balance the Perrier-Jouët style with the climatic effects of the year. Built on the model of the Perrier-Jouët Grand
Brut, which is driven by the intensity of the Chardonnay in the blend, Perrier-Jouët Blason Rosé is enriched by the addition of red wines. The
elegance and finesse of the Chardonnay (25%), blend with the structure of the Pinot Noir (50% including the added red wines) and the
fruitiness of Pinot Meunier (25%) – a grape with which Perrier-Jouët has acquired specific expertise.
Additional details
Nose:
Perrier-Jouët Blason Rosé is graced with a luminous rose colour, shot through with glints of
pale orange. Its fine, lively and persistent sparkle lends it an intense freshness.
Pomegranates, pears, apricots, blood oranges, the fragrances of mature red fruits... a juicy
and generous blend that gives way to notes of biscuit, butter and pastries. The delicate
character of white flowers remains throughout. The Perrier-Jouët Blason Rosé is an intense
and balanced champagne. Blackcurrant buds, pear, apricots and cherry plum emerge first,
only to give way to the fragrances of blackcurrant and blood oranges, followed by notes of
crème de cassis, raspberry, honeysuckle and roses, culminating in lime, blackberries and
Morello cherries.
Palate:
With its sharp and strong sensation, the Perrier-Jouët Blason Rosé is a supple and complex
wine. Rich and long in the mouth. A gourmet champagne, with the authentic character of a
rosé, which will perfectly express its multiple flavours if served between 9 and 11°
Varietal Composition:
Chardonnay (25%), Pinot Noir (50%), Pinot Meunier (25%)
