    Winemaker Notes

    Named after the eldest daughter of Bernard de Nonancourt, this delicate Rosé was the best kept secret in the Tours-sur-Marne cellars until it was revealed as the surprise present at Alexandra's wedding. The ultimate Rosé, it is a rare wine and 1988 is only the third vintage to have been released. Only 100% rated Pinot Noir grapes are used in the process known as 'saignée' - apart from a small percentage of Chardonnay added at the time of pressing. This champagne has a gentle pink color with a deep, powerful, complex nose that develops into toasty honey aromas. This wine has carried Laurent-Perrier's reputation for Rosé champagnes to new heights.

    Alcohol: 12% by volume

    Laurent Perrier The History of Laurent-Perrier Winery Video

    Established in 1812, Champagne Laurent-Perrier has a long tradition of innovation in Champagne and can be credited with many of the ideas that have defined Champagne production since the mid 20th century. Laurent-Perrier was among the first to introduce stainless steel fermentation tanks to the region in the 1950s, resurrected the non-dosage Champagne category with the introduction of Ultra Brut in 1981, and sparked the revival of non-vintage rosé Champagne in 1968 despite the opinion of other producers that non-vintage rosés were not to be taken seriously. Today, Laurent Perrier's iconic Cuvée Rosé remains the benchmark for non-vintage rosé champagne. 

    Laurent-Perrier has become one of the international leaders in Champagne based entirely on the quality of the wines and core values as a company. Laurent-Perrier is still a family-controlled business and makes nothing other than champagne. The house prides itself on quality and consistency, attributable to having only 3 chefs de caves since 1949.

    Laurent-Perrier's house style emphasizes freshness, elegance, and finesse across its entire range of champagnes. None of the wines are aged in oak, and Laurent-Perrier makes fewer single-vintage wines than many other houses. The art of blending - not just of grapes but of years, as well - is fundamental to champagne. At Laurent-Perrier, even our prestige cuvée Grand Siècle is never a single vintage wine, but always a blend of three complementary vintage years, essentially "creating" the perfect year.
