Louis Roederer Vintage Brut 2018 is a beautifully structured Champagne built around Pinot Noir from the Montagne de Reims, with Chardonnay bringing freshness, precision and a fine mineral edge.
The 2018 blend combines 80% Pinot Noir with 20% Chardonnay. Redcurrant, blood orange and citrus meet subtle savoury complexity, while the palate is finely textured with mineral freshness and a long saline finish. Part of the blend was vinified in oak; dosage is 7 g/L.
