Louis Roederer

Brut Premier Champagne Blend

Pale yellow color with plentiful active tiny bubbles and marzipan, almond, pear, subtle citrus and a hint of smoke aromas. On the palate, it's refined, lively and fresh with a delicate creamy mousse, and apricot, apples, pear and lemon curd flavors dominate but hints of grapefruit, black currant and an appealing smoky minerality play in the background. Long finish. Cuvee 2011 Disgorged 2014. 40% Chardonnay, 40% Pinot Noir, 20% Pinot Meunier 5% of wines matured in oak cask with weekly battonage - 10% of reserve wines matured in casks. Partial ML. Assemblage of 6 vintages from 40 different plots. Matured 3 years in cellar and 6 mo after disgorgement. Dosage between 10 adn 11 g/L. My favorite under $40 Champagne! — 11 years ago

When a wine finally has its moment. Have visited @wieninger's 2009 Nussberg Alte Reben Wiener Gemischter Satz for three years hoping for it to crack open and gush forth with giving fruit, minerals, textural play. It has. It's ready, folks! #wienerwein — 11 years ago

My vitamin of choice last night 1995 @YarraYering Dry Red No.1 Perfumed, elegant, acid driven. #FilthyOldVino Opulent, juicy red fruit holds it on the knife's edge from being a shade green. Intriguing play on texture, flavour and balance #YarraValley #Wine #Cabernet For more Filthy Old Vino head to http://filthygoodvino.com/from-the-cellar/ — 12 years ago
