Wines

Laurent Perrier Cuvée Rosé Brut is a rosé Champagne made from 100% Pinot Noir from 10 crus in Montagne de Reims. The cuvée is aged 5 years before release. Its colour comes from 48 to 72 hours of maceration, a method in which must remains with the skins so Pinot Noir contributes colour and red fruit. Brut is a dry sparkling style.

Final Word

Decanter gave Laurent-Perrier Cuvée Rosé a score of 92.
