The 19th of July 2021 saw the release of Laurent-Perrier’s fourth limited-edition Cuvée Rosé Robe. And with this incarnation of their classic Cuvée Rosé, the brand has chosen to highlight the importance of protecting the environment- a plight that’s been consistently integral to their ethos.
The perfect table centrepiece this re-usable bottle is wrapped in a charming butterfly motif and comes in an on-trend rose gold colour, echoing the liquid’s own pink hue.
Cold maceration is used to extract this colour and flavour from grape skins, harnessing the red fruit aromas. Elegant and enchanting, it serves as a beautiful gift or a statement for your table.
It pairs well with seafood, light desserts or canapés before dinner, but is equally enjoyable by itself. Exclusive to Selfridges, £84.99
Perhaps you are dreaming of a white Christmas?
Then the 2022 Vintage Kiwi Sauvignon Mix is for you. And there’s up to £100 off, from Laithwaites. With New Zealand Sauvignon popularity at record levels this is the perfect choice for Christmas.
