Rich Rosé is made from 45% Pinot Noir, 40% Meunier and 15% Chardonnay. Aged for a minimum of three years, Rich Rosé includes 12% of red wine, continuing the tradition of the house. Veuve Clicquot’s signature Pinot Noir is said to be given a new versatility with a higher dosage (60g/l as opposed to 9g/l in its Rosé Brut).
A greater presence of Meunier is said to result in mouth-watering fresh fruit, citrus and floral flavours, balanced by the creamy finish that is so much a part of the Veuve style.
