Louis Roederer Champagne ROSÉ 2017 12,5% Vol. 0,75l in Giftbox

An excellent rosé champagne can only be made from optimally ripened grapes, which is often a challenge in the cool conditions of Champagne. To meet this requirement, Louis Roederer cultivates its grapes in Cumières, where the clay-limestone soil and steep slope provide ideal growing conditions. The vineyards are completely south-facing and the reflected sunlight from the Marne contributes to the high phenolic ripeness of the grapes.

Luis Roederer Champagne Rosé is composed of approximately 63% Pinot Noir and 37% Chardonnay, with 24% of the wine aged in oak barrels. After four years on the lees, the cuvée matures for a further 6 months after dégorgement to develop the perfect balance and depth.

This careful ageing gives the champagne its exceptional complexity and elegance.

Tasting notes:

Delicate golden pink with shiny reflections in the glass. Intense nose of juicy peaches, redcurrants and citrus fruits. Lush, juicy, pleasantly mineral on the palate, accompanied by ripe nectarines and lemons. Long finish with a subtle bitterness and slightly salty notes.

Residual sugar: 9 g/l
