Champagne AOC Brut Blanc de Blancs 2017 Louis Roederer

The Blanc de Blancs by Louis Roederer is an exclusive Champagne made from 100% Chardonnay grapes grown in the vineyard "La Côte", 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 made with 28% of wines aged in wood, without malolactic fermentation, to preserve freshness and structure. This Blanc de Blancs 2016 captures the essence of the terroir of Avize, achieving a rare balance between energy, power, and finesse.

On the nose, it reveals a refined bouquet of white flowers, jasmine, and orange blossoms, enriched by notes of citrus zest, lemon, and hints of harvesting. Iodine and marine nuances also emerge, accompanied by chalky dust and delicate smoky hints reminiscent of toasted almonds. On the palate, it offers a creamy and silky texture, evolving into an intense and concentrated marine freshness. The finish is seductive and bright, with a pleasant saline and tart sensation that stimulates the salivation.

This Champagne is an ideal accompaniment to refined dishes of fish and shellfish, or to fresh cheeses, enhancing the flavors with its elegance and mineral complexity.
