93pts Wine Spectator

A well-balanced version backed by vibrant acidity, with delicate notes of pureed strawberry, pastry cream, blood orange peel and smoke-tinged mineral carried on a fine mousse. Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Pinot Meunier.

92pts James Suckling

Candied-watermelon and cherry aromas with some cranberry. Full-bodied with lots of fruit and fresh acidity and a tangy finish. Rose petals at the end. Drink now.

91pts Decanter

Lovely floral and red cherry nose, carrying through to oranges on the mid-palate with notes of dark chocolate and cream. Long, rich finish.

90pts Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

The latest release of Perrier-Jouët's NV Brut Blason Rosé is generous and charming, delivering notes of ripe peach, strawberries and pears complemented by hints of fresh bread. Medium to full-bodied, fleshy and enveloping, its sweet core of fruit is girdled by ripe acids. This is an immediate, demonstrative rosé that will appeal to a broad audience and drink well young.

Winemaker's Notes

Perrier-Jouët Blason Rosé is a rosé that defies every cliché, every stereotype. If you want to try something daring, this is the champagne for you – it will go with you all the way.

The color is medium salmon with copper highlights. The bouquet displays aromas of ripe strawberry and bright red raspberry, with notes of light spice hinting at Hawaiian pink ginger, Mandarin orange, and honey with a touch of earthiness. On the palate, the wine shows freshly crushed strawberries with citrus and earth notes on the very long, persistent finish.

This rose pairs perfectly with fresh shellfish or smoked salmon, also an ideal pairing with roasted pheasant breast, pan-fried venison filets with fresh truffles, and wild pork.
