The NV Louis Bouillot Perle d’Aurore Rosé de Presse is a refined Crémant de Bourgogne crafted in Burgundy using the traditional method, primarily from Pinot Noir and Gamay with supporting Chardonnay. It reflects over a century of expertise in sparkling winemaking, offering a Champagne-inspired style with elegance, freshness and approachability. The nose is vibrant and expressive, showing wild strawberry, raspberry and redcurrant, layered with delicate floral notes, citrus zest and a subtle brioche nuance.
On the palate, it is light to medium-bodied with a fine, persistent mousse and bright acidity. Juicy red berry flavours are balanced by a gentle creaminess and a touch of savoury complexity, leading to a crisp, refreshing and elegant finish. The style is lively and polished, combining fruit purity with finesse and drinkability.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is one of the best-value alternatives to Champagne-style rosé. It’s ideal for customers who enjoy fresh, fruit-driven sparkling wines with fine bubbles and a dry finish. This is not overly rich - it’s bright, elegant and versatile. Drink now. Perfect as an aperitif, or with seafood, smoked salmon, light salads or soft cheeses.
