Discover this Belle Époque Rosé Hummingbird Edition 2005

Premier Champagne house, Perrier-Jouët have released a limited-edition bottle designed by internationally acclaimed Brazilian artist Vik Muniz. Inspired by the love of nature and enchantment, the bottle design features a golden hummingbird amongst Perrier-Jouet’s classic anemone motif. Aesthetics aside, the wine itself is a thing of beauty - rich, pure and finely chiselled, striking a perfect balance between the year's character and Perrier-Jouët’s floral, elegant house style. It's these characteristics that prompted Cellar Master Hervé Deschamps to choose the 2005 vintage to represent this exclusive edition. With only a few bottles available worldwide, Hervé Deschamps has described it as +the most extravagant wine of the Belle Époque collection+.

Critical Acclaim

Pale salmon to onion-skin colour; a lovely smoky and toasty mellow bouquet, with sweet touches of spiced honey. The palate is very good, but just a shade sweet and ever so slightly mawkish on the finish, with a little thickness. Quince paste, nettles, dried herbs, plus hints of celery and parsnip. (50% chardonnay, 45% pinot noir, 5% meunier)
