Perle d'Or Rose 2015
The prowess of a mature rosé!
This wine has the warmth and voluptuousness of pink gold, a mixture of gold, copper and silver, accompanied by a muscular body.
Inspired by the shimmering Perle d'Aurore, Louis Bouillot's most popular non-vintage rosé, Perle d'Or Rose offers an extra degree of complexity. Made only in the best years, it was designed along the same exceptional lines as Perle d'Or, in a rosé version, bringing into play the ingredients of an almost miraculous recipe: ageing, barrels, origins.
This singular Crrémant de Bourgogne rosé is the result of the astonishing metamorphosis of a fruity rosé into an aged rosé: the paradox of a mature wine that has managed to remain fresh!
This golden rosé, aged without developing a patina, combines fruitiness and length. A short maceration enhances its deep colour. The Pinot Noir plays the tenor here, supported by the chorus, Chardonnay and Gamay. Oak barrels have given a touch of gold to a divine portion for six months and an ageing period of more than three years on racks has revealed its character while preserving the beautiful liveliness of the bubbles.
This unusual combination earned it the status of Eminent, a rare and subtly voluptuous wine.
A rosé with great presence
Generous bubbles, persistent bead.
Notes of strawberry, cherry, brioche.
Yellow peach and almond on the palate.
Matching combinations: shellfish, smoked lake and river fish. And blue-veined cheeses with a strong character such as Roquefort, Bleu de Bresse, Gorgonzola, or Stilton.
Limited edition cuvées
A meticulous blend
A sunny vintage
If ever there was a perfect year, it was 2015, a vintage of excellence, ideal for producing grapes with thick, dense skins, a guarantee of rich colour, concentration and power.
This wine has strength disguised as finesse. Bright salmon colour, scents of red berries and brioche. An ode to the expression of substance, with notes of ripe summer fruit, yellow peach, almond, strawberry, raspberry, stewed or crushed, accompanied by a generous oakiness. Delicate structure, strength, chewiness, dense flavours.
The secret of its elegance, again and always, this immense six-year ageing period...
A great wine that masters the delicate balance between finesse and fruity notes.
