🏰 The 2016 Louis Roederer Blanc de Blancs Millesime is a sublime vintage Champagne, crafted exclusively from 100% Chardonnay sourced from the estate's Grand Cru vineyards in the Côte des Blancs, specifically Avize's "La Côte" estate. The 2016 vintage was marked by significant weather variations, including a cool, wet spring followed by a warm, dry summer and a beneficial sunny harvest, resulting in Chardonnays that are outstanding, chiselled, and saline. This wine is a pure, luminous expression of the Roederer house style, marrying richness with crystalline freshness. 【 Crafted exclusively from 100% Grand Cru Chardonnay from Avize's "La Côte" estate 】. It presents a brilliant, pale golden hue with remarkably fine and persistent bubbles. On the nose, elegant aromas of white flowers like jasmine and orange blossom mingle with citrus zest, wheat, iodine freshness, sea spray, and powdery chalk, evolving to reveal smoky and grilled almond notes after aeration. The palate is creamy and caressing, delivering complex layers of white peach and lemon blossom, vibrant apple and pear flavors, supported by invigorating minerality and a precise, creamy texture. The finish is long, elegant, smooth, saline, luminous, and drying. 🍴 This elegant Champagne pairs beautifully with delicate seafood dishes such as lobster, scallops, oysters, crab, raw or marinated fish, white fish, and poultry. 🥂 Ideal for prestigious gifting, grand celebrations, or as a sophisticated aperitif. Serve at 8-10°C (or 9-12°C) in a thin-rimmed, tulip-shaped glass to best appreciate its delicate aromas and fine effervescence.
