    Overview

    Laurent-Perrier Alexandra 2004 75cl


    An exceptional marriage

    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.

    The year 2004: despite periods of hail and storms during the spring and summer, well-matured harvest of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grapes (the former being more heterogenous)

    MACERATION, VINIFICATION AND BLENDING 
    Grape varietals: Pinot Noir 80%* Chardonnay 20%* Crus: 100% Grand Crus. Some of the most prestigious crus such as Ambonnay, Bouzy, Verzenay for the Pinot Noir and Avize, Cramant and Le Mesnil-sur-Oger for the Chardonnay. The selection of plots and vineyards for the perfectly ripe Chardonnay and Pinot Noir was extremely strict. 

    During the Pinot Noir maceration, 20% Chardonnay is added. Ageing: released from the cellars after 10 years.

    SENSORY CHARACTERISTICS 
    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. 
    Best served between 10°C and 12°C

    WINE/FOOD PAIRINGS Reserved for the finest dishes: tempura of langoustine, roasted lobster and scallops with black truffle
