Winemaking

L’addition method is used to make the Prestige Rosé to ensure consistency and quality. 85% of the fruit is vinified as white wine and to this is added the other 15% that has been vinified as a red pinot noir wine. This gives the Prestige Rosé its distinctive salmon pink colour. The wine is aged for 3 years. The dosage is the same as the non-vintage.

Winemaker’s Comments

Delicate salmon pink in colour. Its aromas are fresh with wild strawberries and a hint of spice. On the palate, the wine is balanced, lively and smooth with good length and persistent flavours of red fruit. Overall, the Prestige Rosé displays charm and a subtle harmony of flavours. The fresh fruit flavours make this Champagne the perfect summer aperitif. However, it also goes well with fruit based desserts and selected cheeses.
