'The intensity, freshness and elegance of rosé Champagne in keeping with the Philipponnat style'The name of Royal Réserve goes back to the ancestors of the Philipponnat family'
VINIFICATION
Vinified using traditional methods to avoid premature oxidation. Partial malolactic fermentation and some of the wines aged in casks to allow the aromas to develop complexity. Still red wine made from Pinot Noir grapes from Mareuil-sur-Ay and
Riceys is obtained by maceration and 7 to 8% is added to obtain a delicately coloured rosé with a very definite fruity taste. Moderate brut dosage (9 g/litre) to maintain a balance between freshness, fruitiness and vinosity without masking the wine’s character and purity.
Tasting notes:
TO THE EYE - Salmon pink in colour with coppery glints. Delicate, creamy and lingering froth.
WHIT THE NOSE - The first nose reveals summer berries with notes of cherry and wild strawberry. Notes of citrus and grapefruit peel develop with time.
WITH THE MOUTH - The attack is elegant and pure. Full and ample on the palate, with good acidity and a light astringency that brings out the fruitiness.
