    Philipponnat, Royale Réserve, Brut, Rosé, Gift Pack, NV

    Royale Réserve Rosé is a complex, subtle bottle of rosé where the red wine component, generally 7-8% of the blend, comes from the upper sections of the Clos des Goisses vineyard. With up to 30% reserve wines, again from the new two stage perpetual reserve system and a dosage of 9 grams per litre, this is a rosé that is onion peel in colour, complex in flavour with a fine bead and lovely transparency of flavours. This has all the interest and complexity to work really well with food, but also the balance to make a very fine aperitif.

    Sarah Mayo, The Wine Independent
    Based on the 2019 vintage with 27% of reserve wines kept in oak barrels, the Royale Reserve Brut Rosé is a 69% Pinot Noir, 29% Chardonnay and 2% Pinot Meunier assemblage rosé with around 7% still Pinot Noir that includes a small percentage of this is saignée wine taken off at the beginning of the red fermentation. Salmon pink colored with a velvety mousse, it fills the glass with flamboyant, fruity and fresh aromas of raspberries, red currant, quince, dried blood orange slices and hints of honey. Medium-bodied, the palate has a creamy texture rounded out with succulent, red fruit and buoyed by vivacious, balancing acid that leads to a joyful, lingering finish. Disgorged March 2023 and finished with a nine gram per liter dosage.

    The NV Brut Rosé Royale Réserve is absolutely lovely. Soft, open-knit and inviting, the Rosé Royale Réserve is an ideal wine for drinking now and over the next handful of years. All the elements fall into place effortlessly. The Rosé Royale Réserve is built on a strong core of Pinot Noir that represents 75% of the blend, and is the Pinot that drives both the flavor profile and overall feel. Readers will find a Rosé that will drink equally well as an aperitif or at the dinner table. This is an especially fine edition. This release is based on 2016, with the addition of 35% reserve wines. Dosage is 9 grams per liter. Disgorged: February, 2020.
