Perrier Jouet Blason Rose Champagne

Winemaker Notes: The color is medium salmon with copper highlights. The bouquet displays aromas of ripe strawberry and bright red raspberry,with notes of light spice hinting at Hawaiian pink ginger, Mandarin orange, and honey with a touch of earthiness. On the palate, the wine shows freshly crushed strawberries with citrus and earth notes on the very long, persistent finish.

 

CRITICAL ACCLAIM


Wine Spectator - "Vibrant and refined in texture, this well-knit rosé Champagne meshes a chalky base note with flavors of almond biscotti, fresh ginger, white raspberry and candied kumquat."


Wine Enthusiast - "Delicate salmon pink in color, this light, fresh rose shines with its fresh red berry flavors, a delicate style initally, then opening to give raspberry and crisp red apples. Light enough for aperitif, but will also work with food."


Connoisseurs Guide - "With a little more fruity vigor on the positive side of the ledger to go along with its slightly austere, citrus-tinged sense of French reserve, this bottling separates itself from most of what is called Rosé on this side of the pond—and even on the other. It is lifted by a fine, somewhat creamy mousse and enough depth to hold its head up, and it is suitably buttressed on the palate by a bit of the latter-palate grip that belongs to the genre. With light foods or without, it is bound to please."
