Rose Sauvage



There're something very special about rose champagne. Could it be the sexy colour, rich taste or perhaps less common than a non-rose champagne? Since rose champagne have a special place in mine heart, I enjoy it on any occasion.

Rose Sauvage is a rose champagne from the house of Piper-Heidsieck. This maison was founded in 1785. This rose has an intensely rich red berry colour from a higher proportion of pinot noir in the blend. The tasting notes from Piper-Heidsieck's website reveals nose of red fruits especially cherries and notions of mandarin, grapefruit and figs. While the palate of the rose is filled with red plums, clementines and blood orange. I agreed with the red plums and picked up hints of red currants and cherries.

I found this rose to be smooth on the palate and lower acidity than other rose. I reckon it's perfect with desserts or strawberries.
