Louis Roederer Blanc de Blancs Vintage Champagne 1999

Champagne, FranceThe Blanc de Blancs vintage is only produced in small quantities from top crus in the Côte des Blancs. Lower mousse but fine bubbles. Very toasty, buttery brioche nose with mineral, creamy, baked green apple aromas with floral notes. Dry, elegant, slightly lean palate but fine finesse with lemon, creamy baked apple, mineral, lime rind flavours. Very crisp, dry finish. The reduced mousse and crispness suggests a fizz that would pair well with seafood dishes.Tasted: 10 December 2005Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
