Wine maker notes: Just as our Brut Première Cuvée, our Rosé is produced from a first pressing only. Purity and finesse are therefore a shared distinction. Great Champagne is a blend by definition, and our Rosé follows the rule. Pinot Noir is pressed rapidly, with juice and skins separated at once, to obtain a clear white wine, which is then blended with the juice of Pinot Noir vinified as Rosé (achieved by briefly leaving the black skins on the juice) or with red wine of the same grape, the result of fermenting the skins with the juice for a complete extraction of colour. This can be done with the red wine produced in our region known as Bouzy Rouge. Whatever the method, Pinot Noir in its three variations makes up 85% of the blend. To that we include a touch of Chardonnay (15%) to add elegance to the fruit of the Pinot Noir.
