Tasting notes
Pink hue with bright, fresh tints and generous, slow-moving bubbles. The deep Pinot Noir bouquet is a blend of delicate citrus notes (blood oranges), red fruit (blackcurrants) and spice (a touch of camphor). After aeration, the red fruit becomes intertwined with notes of honey and gingerbread. On entry, the wine is juicy, fruity, concentrated and palate-coating. The sun-drenched fruit and its slightly sweet texture give the impression of biting into a perfectly ripe blackberry. The wine shows remarkable poise thanks to the sensual, almost powdery texture that balances the zero dosage. The end palate reveals slightly spicy (camphor), smoky (bacon) and iodised notes that usher in a sensation of Umami.
Vinification
A small proportion of the Pinot Noir grapes undergo a few days’ cold “infusion” without alcohol fermentation before being incorporated into the Brut Nature Blanc juices. Part of the wine is vinified in oak. No malolactic fermentation. The final wine is prepared with the best embodiment of the vinting in mind with zero dosage, preserving the unique style of Roederer. Zero dosage.
Ageing
5 years in the cellar and 6 months after disgorgement.
Food pairing
Excellent both as an aperitif and with food.
