Louis Roederer Brut Rosé Champagne 2012
Champagne, FranceLouis Roederer vintage is always an owned vines affair. In 2012 the mix was 63/37 pinot noir/chardonnay, matured in oak tuns, without MLF, where it rests for four years on the lees before spending an additional six months after disgorging in the bottle. The nose is a beautiful melange of autolytic toasted notes with rich cherry, mandarin, and apricot that belies its delicate pale pink colour. Elegance and minerality, with a favourite Treve term ‘smoked stones' that line the back end, leaving your palate fresh and ready for food.Tasted: 02 November 2019Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:BC | $96.99 | 750ml | BCLS |
