The Finest Bubble are holding another unique blind tasting event at 67 Pall Mall. The tasting is a comparison of Blanc and Rosé Prestige Cuvée Champagnes from the same house. Rosé champagne is often overlooked and as such, we have handpicked some of our favourites for you to enjoy and judge at what promises to be an exciting event!Champagnes to be tasted:Bollinger La Grande Année 2007 & La Grande Année Rosé 2007Krug Grande Cuvée 163rd Edition & Krug Rosé NVDom Ruinart Blanc de Blancs 2002 & Rosé 2002Dom Perignon 2006 Blanc & Rosé 2005 Taittinger Comtes Blanc de Blancs 2006 & Rosé 2006Louis Roederer Cristal 2009 Blanc & Cristal Rosé 2009Dom Perignon P2 1995 Blanc & P2 Rosé 1995We will be tasting the Champagnes blind – Blanc first, then Rosé – so that you can decide without any preconceptions which you prefer, and live voting will show us the favourites as Essi guides us through the tasting.
