The 5th and final wine at the Louis Roederer dinner last Friday night ( even though I did have a sip of the 2015 Cristal which was stunning ). The host for the evening said this Rose was made in a unique style with whole Pinot Noir berries added to the pressed Chardonnay juice. When the Pinot Noir berries split the must is pressed again. Red fruited but not as strawberries and cream as I was expecting.

So...I had a birthday a couple weeks back, due to scheduling my regular bottle finishing team wasn't available until now, so we're finally doing it up in my grand, unique style.
Notes possibly...

Needs to sleep and shame on me for opening but this was a WNH virtual tasting and decided to pop open - surprisingly it was better at end of the bottle - little smiles

Along with the vintage Blanc de Blancs, Roederer vintage rosé is an often overlooked gem in the winery's portfolio. Exceptional focus and balance, vibrant fruit and great depth of flavor are the hallmarks of this dazzling rosé. Great value and immensely satisfying.

Almost no vintage dated Champagne was made in the very wet, difficult 2011 harvest, this is one of the very few. This all estate grown wine is mostly direct macerated Pinot Noir from Cumieres blended with some North facing Chouilly Chardonnay. While not as concentrated or as lively in acidity as the 2010, this is still lovely rosé!

To start winding down 2022… This was the perfect pull, bright strawberry, and perfect acidity.
