2018 Louis Roederer Brut Nature Deluxe Rosé
A soft, delicate hue bordering on petal pink. Fine and creamy with a steady stream of bubbles.
An expressive bouquet of citrus (blood orange), tangy red fruit (redcurrant) and fresh, sweet flowers (violet). Initially restrained yet impeccably clean and flawless, it gradually unveils a captivating concentration of fruit with a suggestion of raspberry liqueur.
The palate is dense and concentrated. The structure comes to the fore, full, broad and concentrated, in a sensation that is simultaneously juicy, savoury and crunchy. One has the impression of biting into a perfectly ripe, juicy fruit on a summer afternoon. What is remarkable here is the «transparency» of the fermentation, which has skill-fully respected the original flavour of the fruit. The weave is intricately woven with grainy, salty tannins that prolong the sensation of freshness while adding delicate, mouth-watering notes of spices and cocoa powder.
