TASTING NOTES

APPEARANCE

Champagne coloured with bright, luminous reflections. Very fine, even bubbles.

AROMA

The bouquet reveals yellow fruits (mirabelle plum and nectarine) and candied citrus (lemon), complemented by toasted, oaky notes (vanilla) which come from the 24% of wines vinified in our French oak foudres. The fine reductive notes (shellfish) weave their spell, giving the wine a very chiselled character sculpted by the Chardonnay.

VINTAGE NOTES

The 246th harvest at Louis Roederer was a challenging, gruelling and in many ways confusing one. 2021 will be remembered as a year when the vineyard team showed unwavering commitment in the face of what was probably one of the most difficult winegrowing seasons since 1958, resulting in low yields! The harvest took place from 13 to 30 September 2021.

GRAPE VARIETY

54% Chardonnay, 35% Pinot Noir, 11% Meunier
