More information Perrier Jouët Blason Rose Sparkling Wines
The Blason Rosé Perrier-Jouët is the direct heir of the Blasons de France series, popular with food lovers everywhere.
The Blason Rosé is a wine characterized by its distinctive flavour, power, and roundness. Hervé Deschamps, true to the creative and craft traditions handed down by the Perrier-Jouët Cellar Master, executes the composition in one combined effort, with no pre-composition. Testing the vats one by one, he selects around thirty wines to make up the composition of the Blason Rosé, in a constant quest for perfection and balance.
The Cellar Master seeks ampleness and structure in this cuvée, in search of a gastronomic blend which must nevertheless retain a certain freshness. A marriage which demands the precision of a specialist in order to bring out the elegance of style that is the hallmark of Perrier-Jouët champagne.
For the Blason Rosé, Hervé Deschamps opted for the red wines of Aÿ and Vincelles (12 to 15%), rather than the powerful pinots of the south Montagne terroirs such as Bouzy. The Blason Rosé is thus the cuvée with the greatest proportion of pinots, including 50% pinot noir and 25% meunier. The elegance and liveliness of chardonnay make up the remaining 25%.
