Louis Roederer Blanc de Blancs 2013 Review
The Louis Roederer Champagne House has been creating wines for over two centuries. While vintage, Blanc de Blancs Champagne always commands a premium, this bottle certainly justifies the price tag. From the nose to the finish, this wine delights and evolves with time in the glass. 33 percent of the wine was aged in oak, adding a depth worth celebrating following a crisp entry with a riot of orchard fruit aromas. Generous helpings of pastry lead you through an elegant and polished finish. Worth revisiting in a few years as it will only improve with more time in bottle.
