      Description

      The 2016 Vintage by Louis Roederer is a vibrant tribute to the Pinot Noir of the Montagne de Reims. It showcases all the power and elegance of the Pinot Noir from Verzy. With subtle notes of ripe red fruits and a silky texture, this champagne is perfect for both aperitifs and meals.

      The Making of the 2016 Vintage by Louis Roederer

      The year 2016 was marked by a very mild winter followed by a cool, even cold, spring. Although July was cool and rainy, August saved a poorly started season with beautiful warmth. The harvest, carried out between September 15 and October 1, 2016, allowed for the obtaining of grapes of exceptional maturity, particularly due to a lower yield than usual. These grapes result in this fresh and fruity vintage.

      The 2016 Vintage Roederer is a blend of 68% Pinot Noir from Verzy (Montagne de Reims) and 32% Chardonnay from Chouilly (Côte des Blancs). This cuvée is partially aged in wood (34%) to bring a gourmet touch to the wine. Malolactic fermentation was limited to 5%, thus preserving the freshness and vivacity of the wine. Its Brut dosage at 7g/L provides a beautiful roundness to the wine.

      Tasting of the 2016 Vintage by Louis Roederer

      • Color

        The 2016 Vintage displays a golden hue with brilliant reflections and fine, regular effervescence.

      • Nose

        The bouquet is toasted and powdery with aromas of ripe red fruits, sweet and juicy, candied and roasted citrus, as well as dried fruits. In a second instance, the nose reveals mineral notes of damp chalk.

      • Palate

        On the palate, the 2016 Vintage is complex and generous. The ripe fruits discovered on the nose are present. There is a beautiful balance with mineral, grainy, spicy, woody, powdery, and almost camphorated accents. The delicate bubble caresses the palate, prolonging the sensation in a long, saline, and sapid finish, marked by spicy and woody notes.
