Description

The Champagne Rosé de Saignée by Lelarge Pugeot represents a particularly captivating and distinctive expression of the Vrigny terroir in the Champagne region. This rare cuvée is produced using the saignée method, which involves a brief maceration of the red Pinot Noir grape skins with the must, thereby achieving a naturally intense color and superior aromatic complexity.

The olfactory palette of this Champagne stands out for its vibrant notes of fresh red fruits like strawberry and raspberry, enriched with hints of rose petals and a slight spiciness. On the palate, the structure is robust yet elegant, with a remarkable balance between acidic freshness and a creamy texture that extends into a persistent and harmonious finish.

Ideal as an aperitif, the Rosé de Saignée by Lelarge Pugeot is also perfect when paired with dishes based on salmon, white meat, or sophisticated exotic cuisine. Serve at a temperature between 8 and 10 degrees to fully appreciate its aromatic range.

Winery history

The Lelarge family has cultivated vineyards in Vrigny for generations; the first records date back to the late 18th century, and the house began bottling Champagne in the early decades of the 20th century. In the 1980s Dominique Lelarge and Dominique Pugeot gave the house its current name; from the 2000s the estate embarked on a transition toward more environmentally friendly practices, with a gradual move to organic farming and biodynamic techniques, expansion of cellar facilities, and the development of natural cuvées and still wines.

Production philosophy

The estate prioritizes respect for biodiversity and the soil: organic vineyard management, biodynamic practices on parts of the estate, spontaneous fermentations with indigenous yeasts, and minimal cellar interventions. They also promote social initiatives related to sustainability and fair trade with international partners.

Terroir and vineyards

Located in Vrigny, a Premier Cru village in the Montagne de Reims. The vineyards lie on chalky, silty‑clay and sandy soils; the estate's plantings are concentrated around Vrigny, an area recognized for its expression of Pinot Meunier.
