Champagne Philipponnat Cuvée “1522” Rosé 2006
In Champagne, rosés are not new, nor are they considered light and easy. Here’s proof with this rosé version of Philipponnat’s Cuvée “1522”. Cuvée “1522” Rosé, is the most accomplished example of the Champagne House’s great blends made from the finest selections of Pinot Noir from Ay (around 70%, including 8% red wine from the Mareuil s/Aÿ vineyards) and Chardonnay from Mesnil s/Oger (30%).
 
The nose is reminiscent of red and black fruits, with some floral notes. On the palate, the attack is fresh and pure. The mousse is fine and delicate. Complex, balanced and pleasantly lively, “1522” Rosé is a perfect expression of ripe fruit and great minerality. Simply enjoy with strawberries or raspberries for dessert. Ideal for sunny days!
