Some years we do a long search for a special sparkling wine, finding a rare bottle that we will experience for the first time. This year, at our first shopping stop, we ran into an old favorite that brought back great memories of past toasts, so we went with it \u2013 a bottle of Cuv\u00e9e Ros\u00e9 from Laurent-Perrier<\/a>!<\/p>\n

\"P1000821\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This is a year when we want to think about past wines as we celebrate the 10th Anniversary of the Sparkling Resolution we made back in 2007 and have kept ever since. We said New Years was not often enough to toast to the good things we had experienced in the past and what we looked forward to in the future, so we should raise a glass of sparkling wine for the first of every month. For 10 years we have happily kept that resolution and many of those wines have been featured here. <\/p>\n

By the way, while some of our featured wines are hard to find, this one is widely distributed. If you are thinking of bringing this bubbly to someone special as a New Years gift, see if you can find a bottle in the impressive copper box with a magnetic cover. It will cost $70 – $95 but is definitely worth it!<\/p>\n

\"Maceration\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We discovered this Cuv\u00e9e Ros\u00e9 from Laurent-Perrier years ago at Upstairs on the Square<\/a>. (Sadly now gone from the great restaurant scene.)  It was on the wine list at a price that was so reasonable that we asked one of our favorite bartenders to check that it was right. It was and we enjoyed this on a number of visits over the years. It will be great to toast 2018 and our memories of the great staff and collection of regulars who shared that bar with us.<\/p>\n

About this wine from the winemaker:<\/a><\/span><\/h2>\n

Grape varietal:<\/strong> Pinot Noir 100%<\/p>\n

Crus:<\/strong> 10 different crus located mainly in the South and North areas of the Montagne de Reims \u2013 including the famous C\u00f4te de Bouzy \u2013 notably from the finest crus of Ambonnay, Bouzy, Louvois and Tours-sur-Marne.<\/p>\n

The grapes from carefully selected plots are sorted and destemmed before vatting. The maceration \u2013 lasting from 48h to 72h depending on the harvest \u2013 helps the extraction of the colour and the development of the full aromatic richness of the Pinot Noir.<\/p>\n

Ageing:<\/strong> 5 years minimum.<\/p>\n

\"Flacon\"<\/a><\/p>\n

What the reviewers say about Cuv\u00e9e Ros\u00e9 from Laurent-Perrier:<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

K&L Wines<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

"Made from 100% Pinot Noir grapes from a total of ten 100%-rated grands crus villages, this Champagne gets its glorious pink color and rounded red fruit flavors from a process known as "saigne\u00e9," in which the skins of the grapes are left in contact with the juice for three days. Laurent-Perrier's Cuv\u00e9e Ros\u00e9 not only makes a delicious ap\u00e9ritif, but is also a good match for a variety of different dishes. (Gary Westby, K&L Champagne Buyer)"<\/p>\n

Wine Enthusiast<\/a><\/p>\n

"Orange-pink in color, this dry wine has some good bottle age that has rounded the corners and allowed toast to join the red fruits and orange zest flavors. A complex background of acidity, structure and final tautness makes this wine ready to drink now."<\/p>\n
