Louis Roederer Blanc de Blancs 2015

The Blanc de Blancs 2015 vintage from Maison Louis Roederer is a true expression of elegance and purity.

Here is a more detailed description of this exceptional champagne:

Origin and Terroir: This cuvée is composed exclusively of Chardonnay from Avize, a Grand Cru terroir of the Côte des Blancs, recognized for the exceptional quality of its grapes.

This region is famous for its chalk, which gives the wine a distinct minerality.

Vinification and Maturation: Part of this vintage (16%) is vinified in oak barrels, adding an additional dimension to its complexity. Malolactic fermentation was not carried out to preserve the freshness of the wine.

The bottles were patiently aged for 5 years in the house's cellars. This champagne is dosed in Brut, with a sugar quantity of 8 g/L.

2015 vintage: The year 2015 was extraordinary for Champagne, marked by exceptional harvest conditions.

It was also the year that Champagne was listed as a UNESCO world heritage site. The harvested grapes reached optimal maturity thanks to a cool end of summer, which gave rise to juicy, ripe and concentrated grapes.

Tasting:

• Appearance: This champagne has a brilliant golden color with light green reflections. Its effervescence is soft, creamy and ultra fine.

• Nose: On the nose, it reveals a precise and mineral bouquet. There are notes of ripe citrus fruits, almost vanilla-like white flowers and harvest, evoking almonds and wheat. Freshness is also present in the form of mint and iodine, reminiscent of a sea breeze. Gradually, warmer nuances of smokiness, hot butter and toast develop.

• Mouth: On the palate, the attack is creamy, both tender and concentrated. The wine unfolds intensely, supported by a delicate effervescence. It has the sensation of a ripe, complete and concentrated juice, carried by an incredibly powdery texture. The finish is decidedly saline, with some woody and smoky notes which prolong the wine, giving it length and complexity. The finish is pure, refreshing and salivating.

This 2015 Blanc de Blancs champagne is a true masterpiece from Maison Louis Roederer, testifying to the exceptional know-how and commitment to quality that have made this champagne house famous.

It promises an unforgettable taste experience and impressive aging capacity.
