Rosé Impérial

Rosé Impérial

tasting notes

COMPOSITION

The intensity of the Pinot Noir dominates, contributing almost half of the blend. Meunier brings roundness, while Chardonnay brings its generous elegance to the two other grape varieties. Depending on the year, 20 to 30% of reserve wines complete the intensity, subtlety and consistency of Moët Impérial Rosé champagne.

A RADIANT APPEARANCE

Bright pink adorned with amber glints.

A DELICATE NOSE

The lively and intense bouquet is full of red fruits: wild strawberry, raspberry, cherry, etc. Then, a scattering of rose petals inspire floral nuances, underscored with a slight hint of pepper.

An expressive, intense and supple palate

Strawberry, raspberry, redcurrant: the juicy and persistent intensity of the red berries explodes onto the palate, joined by the fleshy, then firm peach aromas. The finish is structured by the freshness of a subtle peppery and minty note.

CHROMATICITY

Moët Impérial Rosé champagne calls to mind: a plethora of red, pink and amber tones, a brightly-coloured candy apple, a green bouquet of mint leaves, dill, basil and verbena, the fleeting vision of a black pepper grain.

Textures

The quest for soft textures underscored by a slight bitterness. The elegant softness of turbot. The mouthwatering sensation of a tangy red berry.
