Champagne AOC Brut Blanc de Blancs 2017 Louis Roederer

Louis Roederer's Blanc de Blancs is an exclusive Champagne, made from 100% Chardonnay grapes grown in the "La Côte" vineyard, located in the Avize cru. The dry and sunny conditions during the harvest favored the full ripening of the grapes, giving the wine a classic, chiseled, and saline style, representative of the great Chardonnays of Avize.

This Champagne is crafted with 28% of wines aged in wood, without malolactic fermentation, to preserve freshness and structure. This Blanc de Blancs captures the essence of the Avize terroir, achieving a rare balance between energy, strength, and finesse.

On the nose, it reveals a refined bouquet of white flowers, jasmine, and orange blossoms, enriched with notes of citrus zest, lemon, and hints of harvest aromas. Iodized and marine nuances also emerge, accompanied by chalk powder and delicate smoky hints reminiscent of toasted almonds. On the palate, it offers a creamy and velvety texture that evolves towards an intense and concentrated marine freshness. The finish is smooth and bright, with a pleasant saline and tangy sensation that stimulates salivation.

This Champagne is an ideal accompaniment for refined dishes based on fish and shellfish, or for fresh cheeses, enhancing flavors with its elegance and mineral complexity.
