A rosé champagne like no other

To form a Cuvée Rosé of exceptional quality, Laurent-Perrier sources its grapes from 10 different Grand Crus, which are highly regarded for their excellence. These Crus can be found in the south and north of the Montagne de Reims and include some of the finest Crus from the famous villages of Ambonnay, Bouzy, Louvois, and Tours‑sur‑Marne.

Once sourced, the length of this maceration process all depends on the harvest, with some years requiring longer than others. In addition to extracting the iconic salmon pink Cuvée Rosé color, maceration also allows Laurent-Perrier to produce unequaled aromas. It is through these aromas that the true pedigree of the Crus that are utilized by Laurent-Perrier can be experienced.
