FEATURES
🏰 The Louis Roederer Brut Millésimé 2015 is a stunning expression from a "spectacularly continental vintage", noted for its ideal grape maturation conditions, particularly for Pinot Noir from Verzy. Cellar Master Jean-Baptiste Lécaillon praised its "natural intensity and remarkable concentration", describing it as a "climate change" vintage that remarkably maintains focus. This vintage Champagne, a blend of approximately 70% Pinot Noir and 30% Chardonnay, undergoes significant wood vinification (24-34%) and extended lees ageing for at least four years, followed by six months of rest post-disgorgement.
In the glass, it presents a luminous golden colour with fine, persistent bubbles. The nose is rich with ripe yellow fruits, candied citrus, brioche, toasted hazelnut, and subtle minerality, alongside notes of redcurrant, mirabelle plum, and white pepper. The palate offers a silky, broad attack with lively freshness and delicate minerality, evolving into a balanced, soft, and elegant profile with juicy vibrancy and hints of honeyed depth. The finish is long, harmonious, and vibrant, showcasing refreshing salinity and elegant persistence. 【A perfect balance of power and elegance from an exceptional year】.
🍴 This versatile Champagne is perfect as an aperitif or throughout a meal. It pairs beautifully with refined dishes such as lobster, roasted poultry, mushroom risotto, and aged cheeses. Consider it with oysters, creamy risotto, shellfish, crab, and delicate white fish or poultry. For a sophisticated starter, finely sliced Bellota ham or raw/marinated fish are excellent choices.
🥂 The Louis Roederer Brut Millésimé 2015 is an ideal choice for grand celebrations, luxurious gifting, or any super occasion that calls for a touch of sophistication and balance. It's also perfect for important aperitif moments or refined tastings with friends.
