Moët & Chandon Rosé Impérial Champagne Brut
Pinot Noir 40-50% (still wine 10%), Meunier 30-40% (still wine 10%), Chardonnay 10-20%, reserve wines 20-30%, France
Moët Rosé Impérial is a spontaneous, radiant, romantic expression of the Moët & Chandon style, a style distinguished by its bright fruitiness, its seductive palate and its elegant maturity. The assemblage reflects the diversity and complementarity of its three grapes varietals: the intensity of Pinot Noir, the roundness of Pinot Meunier, the elegance of Chardonnay. Of this blend, 20 to 30% is composed of specially selected reserve wines to enhance its intensity, subtlety and constancy. This rosé is a glowing pink color with amber highlights. It has a bewitching bouquet of lively, intense red fruits (wild strawberry, raspberry, cherry), floral nuances of rose and a slight hint of pepper. Its expressive palate combines intensity and suppleness—juicy, persistent intensity of berries (strawberry, raspberry, redcurrant) with the fleshiness and firmness of peach and the freshness of a subtle note of menthol. Moët Rosé Impérial pairs well with simple, intense, colorful flavors: red meat, duck or game, cheese like chevre, mozzarella and mascarpone or fresh red-fleshed fruits. (from the vintner)
