Do you often wonder which champagne to choose for your next occasion or which one makes the perfect gift? Should you go for Brut or Rosé? To help answer these questions, we have compiled the most important information about the different types of champagne.
Brut
Let’s start with the classic Brut. Brut simply means that the champagne is dry and crisp. Its sugar content is only 6–12 grams per liter, just enough to balance the acidity. This characteristic makes Brut not just a dessert drink, but also a perfect aperitif or accompaniment throughout a meal.
Another advantage of the low sugar content is that it reflects the quality of the champagne. High sugar levels can sometimes mask minor flaws, but this is not the case with Brut, ensuring you get a true quality champagne.
Our full-bodied Brut features a fruity-floral aroma reminiscent of peach and apricot. It is ideal as an aperitif or paired with poultry and dried fruits.
Rosé
Rosé champagne visually stands in contrast to the classic Brut. It usually tastes summery, with notes of red fruits, making it suitable for many occasions. Whether as an aperitif, on a date, as a gift, at receptions, or as a flavorful and visually appealing complement to desserts or meat dishes (especially poultry), Rosé always makes a sophisticated impression with its delicate taste and color.
Rosé champagnes are generally a bit more expensive because they are the most challenging to create and require a special production method. Achieving the perfect color is particularly important and difficult. This is done either by adding up to 20% red wine to the white base wine during assemblage or by pressing the color from the skins of Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier grapes. Only about 3% of all champagne produced is Rosé.
Our Rosé has a delicate, fruity note and a lively, intense bouquet of red fruits. This mild Rosé is a modern alternative to the classic Brut and works especially well as an aperitif or paired with fruity desserts.
