Louis Roederer Carte Blanche Collection 244

Carte Blanche is the sweetest champagne in the Louis Roederer range. It is made from 40% Pinot Noir, 42% Chardonnay and 18% Pinot Meunier from 40 different parcels, mainly from Louis Roederer's own vineyards in La Rivière, La Montagne and La Côte, plus a few regular partner growers. It is made from six different vintages, with about 10% from Louis Roederer's Réserve selected from the oldest vintages. The wine ferments in bottle for three years, with a dosage of about 38 g per litre, and rests for six months after disgorgement. It shows white flowers, almonds, baked apples, pastry and white chocolate, and suits desserts with vanilla, honey, mild chocolate, marzipan, ice cream and fruit tarts.
