Moussé Fils
L'or D'Eugene Rosé Champagne Blend
Champagne, France
2003-2020 perpetual reserve. 82 meunièr/18 Pinot noir. 2.5g/l dosage. Disgorged June 2022.
I absolutely adore the L’Or d’Eugene Perpetuelle non-rosé. This bottle is my first experience with the rosé version. Big fan of this grower champagne producer.
As typical for Mousse Fils, this champagne is mostly meunièr. Very apparent with the fruit forward and gummy (like fruit snacks) red fruit profile. Black cherry and strawberry cream. On the palate, this trends toward a more herbal strawberry, mint, even some red licorice. Not really oxidative or reductive. No autolytic/aged type notes I’d expect with a perpetual reserve type champagne. Color wise it’s close to the Ulysse Collin rosé but not as powerful, definitely in the saignée style. I’d pair this with seafood as opposed to more savory food. Fun.
This is grower champagne to the core. I like the non-rosé version a bit more due to the perpetual reserve profile, but this is tasty for sure. Not sure it gets better, just different (unlike the non-rosé version).

Dark rose. 82% Pinot menuier. Fruity.

Apr 1st, 2023In my opinion, few producers can match the gracefulness and sheer excitement of Cédric Moussé. His rosé is no exception. Sexy and seductive, there’s a reason I drink this so often.
Stunning in the glass with a saignée style coloring. The nose features strawberries and cherries with blue fruits and earth.
Primarily Pinot Meunier with a splash of Pinot Noir. Composed of not one but two perpetual reserves which gives the champagne that impeccable sleekness and character.
The fruit explodes in your mouth. It’s just so damn good. You really should sit with it and take it all in because it’s such a well made wine but you just can’t. It’s gone in a flash. Every single time. And that’s when you open another bottle.
