Louis Roederer Cristal Rosé 2014 Champagne (75cl)

Louis Roederer Cristal Rosé 2014 is a vintage Champagne from the house's Grand Cru vineyards. The 2014 vintage yielded grapes of exceptional purity and concentration, particularly from the chalky soils of the Montagne de Reims and the Vallée de la Marne. It is crafted from Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, with a small proportion of Pinot Noir still wine from the Cumières vineyard added for colour and aromatic complexity. Fermentation occurs partially in oak foudres, followed by extended maturation on lees in the cellars. In the glass it shows a delicate salmon hue. The nose offers wild strawberries, redcurrants, blood orange zest, toasted brioche, crushed chalk and rose petal. The palate is precise and balanced, with vibrant acidity, ripe red fruit, citrus, fine texture and a persistent creamy mousse leading to a long, mineral-driven finish.
