2019 Louis Roederer Blanc de Blancs
Maison Louis Roederer's vintage Blanc de Blancs is made only in the best years, from the family's Grand Cru "La Côte" estate in Avize, in the heart of the Côte des Blancs. 2019 was a year of sunshine and sharp weather extremes that gave a dense, concentrated vintage.
Grape variety: 100% Chardonnay.
Terroir: Grand Cru "La Côte" in Avize, Côte des Blancs; chalk-rich calcareous soils that give mineral freshness and a saline edge.
Vinification & ageing: Juice drawn off at low pressure for a smooth, fine effervescence; about 23% vinified in oak casks; no malolactic fermentation. Aged around 5 years on the lees, then rested about 8 months after disgorgement. Dosage 7 g/L.
COLOUR: Deep yellow with bright tints and fine bubbles.
NOSE: Powdered chalk, candied lemon, jasmine and white flowers, lightly toasted almonds and a sea-breeze freshness.
PALATE: Dense, concentrated and intense, with crisp fruit, fine creamy bubbles, discreet oak, a hint of white chocolate and a long saline finish.
FOOD PAIRING: Aperitif, oysters, scallops, sushi, grilled fish and aged hard cheeses. Serve at 8-10°C.
