A blend of 80% Pinot Noir and 20% Chardonnay that are pressed together, Laurent-Perrier's new 2012 Brut Alexandra Grande Cuvée Rosé was disgorged in January 2022. Wafting from the glass with rich aromas of orange oil, macerated red berries, stone fruits and petals, it's medium to full-bodied, bright and pillowy, with a fleshy core of fruit and delicate phenolic structure that enlivens its sapid finish.
Disgorged in 2012 after eight years sur lattes, the 2004 Brut Alexandra Grande Cuvée Rosé has really begun to develop some complexity after seven years on cork. Salmon-pink in hue, the wine wafts from the glass with a beautiful bouquet of blood orange, iodine, dried rose petals, aromatic bitters and tangerine. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, pure and racy, with a delicate pinpoint mousse, good concentration at the core and a long, saline finish. Readers who have had the foresight to cellar a few bottles should pop a cork or two, as this rosé is showing brilliantly.
