Love in a bottle. A distinctive pink salmon hue in the glass. Vivacious and luxurious perlage. At first the nose is shy but after a few moments it begins to blossom. Fresh red fruits are dominant throughout with a touch of nectarine. Rose petals, peaches, and blood oranges. There’s a really nice mint note here, as well.

Composed of 62/38 PN/CH with a dosage of 8 g/l. This is a magnificent champagne. Sexy and romantic, it’s a clear cut above. Nice acidity and terrific structure. Plenty of character and indicative of the house. Finesse and refinement for days.

Silky smooth and enthralling on the tongue. Candied apples and chalk with peaches and pears on the palate. Plenty of citrus and a small touch of mint. The finish is long and gorgeous. A beautiful rosé. — 3 days ago

Pale yellow. Strong toast and yeast smell right after opening the bottle without swirling. High acid, just right amount of bubbles (however after 1 hour of opening the bubbles in the glass dissolves quickly). Long lasting finish of lemon, green apple and toast. — 17 days ago

Beautiful toast on the nose and palate. Creamy and yeasty. Great expression of California sparkling wine, only thing it lacks is a long finish of a good champagne. — 3 months ago

An attractive pale gold color with highly active perlage. Very typically Louis in every way. Warm brioche and an abundance of yellow fruit aromas initially. Apples and dandelions with a nice whiff of honey. Strawberries and a little bit of chalk.

The numbered collection series from Louis Roederer continues to impress. Based on the 2018 vintage with a generous amount of reserve wines. Baronial but zesty with terrific balance and structure. Obviously young but there’s plenty of potential for this to develop down the road.

Inviting and thrilling in the mouth. Biscuits and apple with plenty of lemon zest. Just a bit of oak and dried herbs. A lovely, lovely champagne and one that I’ll keep coming back to. — 3 months ago
