Founded in 1991 by the Legras and Haas families, Legras & Haas is a boutique Champagne house based in the Grand Cru village of Chouilly in the prestigious Côte des Blancs region of Champagne, France. The family estate combines generations of viticultural expertise with a modern approach to winemaking, crafting elegant, terroir-driven Champagnes that showcase the diversity of their vineyards. Their philosophy focuses on balance, precision, and expressing the unique character of each grape variety and cru.

Vinification

Intuition Rosé embodies the elegance and freshness that define the Legras & Haas style while highlighting the expressive fruit character of Pinot Noir. The blend combines Chardonnay from the Grand Cru vineyards of Chouilly with carefully selected Pinot Noir from Les Riceys and other renowned terroirs of the Champagne region. A small proportion of still red wine made from Pinot Noir is incorporated into the blend, providing its delicate salmon-pink hue and refined red fruit character.

Each component is vinified separately in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks to preserve purity and freshness. Following blending, the wine undergoes secondary fermentation in bottle according to the traditional Méthode Champenoise and is aged on its lees for a minimum of 24–36 months. This extended maturation contributes complexity, texture, and finesse while maintaining the vibrant fruit expression that characterises the cuvée.

Tasting Notes

Delicate salmon-pink in colour with a fine and persistent mousse, with aromas of wild strawberries, raspberries, red currants, and rose petals, complemented by subtle citrus and pastry notes. The palate is fresh and elegant, revealing flavours of red berries, blood orange, pink grapefruit, and hints of brioche. Balanced acidity, a silky texture, and a refined mineral backbone lead to a long, crisp, and refreshing finish.

Serving Temperature and Suggested Glassware

Serve chilled between 8–10°C to fully appreciate its freshness, fruit expression, and aromatic complexity. For the best tasting experience, serve in a tulip-shaped Champagne glass or a white wine glass rather than a traditional flute. These glass styles allow the wine's aromas and texture to develop while preserving the finesse of the bubbles.

Food Pairing

Intuition Rosé pairs beautifully with smoked salmon, tuna tartare, sushi, grilled prawns, charcuterie, duck breast, berry-based dishes, and soft-ripened cheeses.
