Champagne Egérie de Pannier, Rosé de Saignée Brut, Nv

The Égérie de Pannier Rosé de Saignée Brut NV from Champagne Pannier is a copper-pink Champagne made using the rare saignée method — a short maceration on the skins of Pinot Noir before the juice is “bled” off. It’s composed of approximately 80% Pinot Noir and 20% Chardonnay, and is aged for a minimum of nine years. 

On the nose, expect ripe red-and-black fruits mingled with a delicate floral lift. The palate brings generous fruit weight, fine texture and richness, balanced by fresh acidity and a graceful minerality, leading to a long, refined finish. 

Champagne Pannier was founded in 1899 and is based in Château-Thierry in the Vallée de la Marne. Its historic medieval chalk cellars date back to the 12th century, giving the wines a cool and slow maturation environment.
