Philippe Fourrier Champagne Rosè de Saignee Brut

Philippe Fourrier Champagne Rosé de Saignée Brut is a characterful rosé Champagne made using the traditional saignée method, in which the grape must spends time macerating with the skins to extract its colour and flavour. This style is prized for its deeper fruit profile and more vinous character than many blended rosé Champagnes, making it an appealing choice for both aperitif occasions and the dinner table.

Tasting Notes
The wine shows an attractive pink hue, typically ranging from delicate salmon to bright ruby, with a lively stream of fine bubbles. On the nose, expect aromas of red berries such as raspberry, strawberry and redcurrant, complemented by subtle floral notes and the fresh, bready nuances associated with bottle fermentation. On the palate, the Champagne is dry and refreshing, combining ripe red-fruit flavours with crisp acidity and a gently structured finish. The saignée method can lend additional body and depth, while the Brut dosage keeps the overall impression balanced and vibrant. It is best enjoyed while youthful, though careful cellaring for a few years may allow further integration and added savoury complexity.

Production
As a Rosé de Saignée, this Champagne is produced by briefly macerating freshly pressed grapes with their skins before fermentation, naturally extracting colour, fruit character and additional structure. It is then made according to the traditional Champagne method, with a second fermentation in the bottle followed by lees ageing. Specific details regarding the vineyard sites, grape blend, harvest practices and maturation period are not provided.

Food & Serving
Serve well chilled at approximately 8–10°C in a tulip-shaped Champagne glass to preserve both its aromas and fine mousse. Its combination of freshness and red-fruit character makes it especially well suited to smoked salmon, tuna tartare, roast poultry, duck, charcuterie, grilled prawns and fresh berry desserts. Decanting is not necessary; open shortly before serving and allow the wine to develop in the glass.
