Joseph Perrier Cuvee Royale Brut Rose Champagne (Gift Boxed), France
Grapes: A blend of 40% Chardonnay, 40% Pinot Noir and 20% Pinot Meunier, aged 36 months, 10% still red wine from vineyards in Cumieres, dosage 7g/L
This has colour of luminous pink, and a delicate bead, lively and constant. At first the nose shows both red and black fruits. There are notes of wild violet followed by a touch of liquorice. There is ripeness and breeding on the palate, with hints of sweet red fruits. There is energy and elegance together here with a long finish with just a touch of menthol.
Critics' Tasting Notes:
"Based on the 2019 vintage with 20% reserve wines, the NV Brut Rosé Cuvée Royale is a blend of 40% Chardonnay, 40% Pinot Noir and 20% Pinot Meunier with a dosage of seven grams per liter. It possesses aromas of strawberry, blood orange and pear. Light to medium-bodied, the palate is elegant and tense, fresh and minty with lots of red berry scents and much more charm than last year"
90/100 points, Yohan Castaing,WINE ADVOCATE, April 2023
"Aromas of Pink Lady apples, redcurrants and wild berries, complemented by herbs, red flowers and a reductive smokiness. The lean, linear palate features vibrant acidity and an austere, salty finish."
91/100 points. Highly recommended, Tom Hewson, DECANTER, January 2025
"Waxy, showing strawberries, raspberries, a whiff of rose petals and fresh dough. Medium-sized bubbles with light body, crisp acidity and a chewy, fruity finish"
91/100 points, James Suckling, July 2025
Food Match: As an aperitif it will transport you straight to a summers day and it will partner a terrine of ham hock, or pink lamb, or even dessert if it is not too sweet. A perfect partner for all things pink!
