Champagne Louis Roederer

Rosé Vintage 2016

The Champagne Rosé by Louis Roederer is the representation of the Maison style: concentrated, fruity and dense, obtained by Pinot Noir from Cumières in a sublime elegance with the great Chardonnays from Côte des Blancs. A great Champagne Rosé has to be elaborated from ripe grapes, but this is not always easy in the Champagne region. This is the reason why Louis Roederer decided to invest in Cumières, where the clay-chalky soils benefits from a south exposure and an enforced brightness by Marne. Around 62% Pinot Noir, 38% Chardonnay and a proportion of 33% wines from wooden vinification make this wine. The Cuvée Rosé Vintage rests on its yeasts for 4 years, and 6 more months after disgorging to improve its maturity.
