Champagne Louis Roederer Brut Premier Non Vintage 91+ Points



Pale straw with pale green reflections, fine bead with persistent mousse.

Clean, expressive, impressive purity, seamless, note of subtly ripe citrus, pears, freshly baked pastries, honey, mineral core with delicate oaking and sense of maturity underlying the bright fruit expression.

Dry, properly Brut in style with a direct and linear, natural acid attack, lending a perfect precision and focus, rich, broad texture with citrussy freshness, pin point creaminess, juicy, long and persistent, elegant, layered complexity.

Great value at present, overdelivers on price point, the perfect tipple for any occasion.

Blend of 40% Pinot noir - 40% Chardonnay - 20% Pinot Meunier - 5% of wines are matured in oak casks with weekly batonnage - 10% of reserve wines are matured in casks.
