Champagne Fleur de Miraval is the first Champagne house dedicated exclusively to the production of Rosé. This project, five years in the making, is a collaboration between three families: iconic winemaking families Champagne Pierre Péters, in Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, Famille Perrin of Château de Beaucastel in the Rhône valley and Château de Miraval owners, the Jolie-Pitt family.
The Chardonnay comes from a perpetual cuvée started in 2007, a system that winemaker Rodolphe Péters has perfected at his family domaine. In addition to the complexity gained by older wines held in perpetual reserve, thousands of bottles of perfectly stored and finished mature champagnes were opened, tasted, and blended into Fleur de Miraval. This process, “remise en cercles”, further deepens the flavor andcomplexity of this extraordinary wine. Dealing with older reserves is labor-intensive and relies on the skill of the winemaker to ensure that the best result is achieved. It is a method that Péters developed for his own centennial “Héritage” cuvée with huge success.
