Louis Roederer
Brut Rosé
2013
Chardonnay
Description
A Roederer-style rosé: the concentration, fruitiness and density of the Cumières Pinot Noir are transcended by the elegance, purity and freshness of the great Chardonnays from the Côte des Blancs
Approximately 65% Pinot Noir, 35% Chardonnay and a proportion of 20% of wines vinified in wood. The Rosé Vintage is aged on average 4 years on lees and also benefits from a minimum of 6 months rest after disgorgement to perfect its maturity.
Tasting
A light, bright and clear rosé.
Fabulous! Fine, steady stream of bubbles, evenly distributed
across the glass.
Complex bouquet dominated by an almost minty
freshness combined with zesty fruit, wild strawberry
and raspberry. The nose opens out to reveal spicy
and smoky notes, characteristic of the Pinot noirs
grown in Cumières, along with aromas of dried fruit,
roasted almonds and cocoa beans. Underlying saline
notes, reminiscent of sea spray.
On the palate the wine is soft and smooth yet also
piercingly fresh. A well-integrated wine with excellent
body, pleasant freshness, long length and delicate
mouthfeel. The body softens gradually and coats the
palate with a velvety smoothness underpinned by a
pleasant salinity and delicate hints of tannin from the
flesh and skins of the Pinot noir grape.
The finish is
fresh, long and very persistent.
