Louis Roederer, Blanc de Blancs gift
| Description | An intense bouquet of golden plum and tangy mango, candied lemon, flowers (mimosa) and buttery pastries. A light aeration reveals hints of sugared almonds (ground almonds), white chocolate with a slight vanilla edge and baked apples. The expectation is a substantial and voluminous follow-up, but instead the initial intensity subsides revealing the precision, purity and chalky, mineral freshness of the grand Avize Chardonnays. |

| Vinification | The Blanc de Blancs cuvée has been drained at low pressure to ensure a fuller, richer flow of bubbles. 20% of the wine is fermented in oak barrels. The wine is aged for five years in the cellars and left for a minimum of 6 months after dégorgement to attain the perfect maturity. The dosage is 9 g/l. |
