Philipponnat Royale Reserve Brut Rose NV

The intensity, freshness and elegance of rosé Champagne in keeping with the Philipponnat style. The red Champagne wine which is used to craft Royale Réserve Rosé is produced from grapes grown in the Mareuil-sur-Ay terroir, one of the Philipponnat family’s historic crus and the village where the House’s headquarters are now established.

TASTING
On the eye this Champagne is salmon pink in colour with coppery glints. Delicate, creamy and lingering froth. The first nose reveals summer berries with notes of cherry and wild strawberry. Notes of citrus and grapefruit peel develop with time. In 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.

Delicious as an aperitif, served chilled but not ice-cold (9°C). Enhances smoked fish and meats (ham, bacon) or pink meat (veal, lamb). An ideal complement to summer berry desserts, either served plain or as a soup. Enjoy young to appreciate its full fruitiness. Royale Réserve Rosé will also age magnificently for several years thanks to the expertise employed in blending it.
