Description

Joseph Perrier Cuvee Royale Demi Sec Champagne , France

Grapes: A blend of 35% Chardonnay, 35% Pinot Noir and 30% Pinot Meunier, with around 20% reserve wine. 20 different crus are used, based on the house's own vineyards in Cumières, Damery, Hautvillers and Verneuil. Average of 3 years' ageing in bottle before release

Producer Tasting Note:

Light golden colour and graceful effervescence. On the nose, daffodils, iris and wisps of sponge cake. When swirled, this wine opens with sweet notes. On the palate, the Cuvée Royale Demi-Sec is rich and generous (having a sweet dosage of 38g/L) with flavours of yellow peach, apricot jam and toasted brioche.

Food Match: Recommended to serve at 8-10°C. As a sweeter style of Champagne the obvious pairing would be with desserts - Chocolate fondant, charlotte aux fraises (strawberry cake), fruit pastries (tarte tatin). Savoury dishes, such as foie gras & blue cheeses, also work well. For an exotic, sweet & sour pairing, try a Tahiti crab and pineapple salad, Peking duck, or a spicy lamb kofta.
