Rosé Champagne
Rosé Champagne, or pink Champagne, can be vintage or non-vintage. It takes its pink colour from the skins of the red grapes Pinot noir, or Pinot Meunier, grown only in the Champagne appellation. The colour can vary from very pale baby pink to a copper salmon, depending on the grape varieties used and winemaking techniques.
There are two main methods to produce a rosé Champagne:
- By skin maceration where contact with the dark grape skin imparts the colour into the wine.
- By blending the still white wine (before its second fermentation in bottle) with 5 to 20% of red wine produced from the Champagne grapes.
For more information on the Champagne production process, read our Champagne guide.
