Description
// 80% Pinot Noir and 20% Pinot Noir
"As creator of the benchmark Cuvée Rosé, non‐vintage champagne, it was a natural evolution for Laurent‐Perrier, to offer a prestige vintage rosé. Alexandra Rosé is a rare and cherished wine that comes from a rigorous selection of the best plots ; an exceptional marriage between Grands Crus grapes of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Only 7 vintages have been released since its launch in 1987. A delicate, pale salmon pink colour with persistent and fine bubbles. A complex nose with hints of wild strawberries and redcurrant jam, followed by notes of candied fruits. Elegant and refined, this wine shows great minerality. Its soft and dry texture leads into a long finish indicative of berry fruit with a strong presence of red fruit." - House Notes
"From the very first taste, the 2004 is utterly spectacular. Rich, ample and vertical in feel, the 2004 is dazzling. Dried rose petal, star anise, tobacco, dried flowers, red berry fruit and earthy notes all grace this utterly exquisite Champagne. As good as the 2004 is today – and it is fabulous – it will be even better in another few years’ time. The 2004 has been nothing short of magnificent on both occasions I have tasted it so far." - 96 Points, Antonio Galloni, Vinous
