Brut Nature 2015  -  Champagne Louis Roederer

An extraordinary vintage which is also the year in which the Champagne region was recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage Site! 2015 followed the continental trend of that decade: a mild, wet winter and a hot, dry summer.

The summer, hot and sunny, brought record-breaking temperatures and water stress. The second half of August brought some very welcome rain, giving the vines some much needed relief. Thanks to this fresh finish, the vines produced juicy, ripe and concentrated grapes. Our ambition for this vintage? To capture the concentration which is the hallmark of this spectacular vintage!

Tasting notes

The Brut Nature Rosé graces us with its fresh fruity notes.

The nose opens with citrus, red fruit and a subtle hint of spice followed by a touch of honey and gingerbread. The structure of this wine is generous, almost tannic, and is complemented by notes of juicy, crunchy blackberries and a powdery texture that balances the zero dosage. Some spicier, smoky and iodised notes, with a well-honed bitterness, round off this refined champagne.

“ A deliciously refined Rosé Nature 2015 with a delicate sweetness and sensation of Umami. ”
Jean-Baptiste Lécaillon,
Cellar Master

Ageing potential

Our champagnes undergo an extended period of ageing to allow them to gently evolve and mature, gaining in structure and depth, whilst developing highly nuanced aromas over the years. You may enjoy them in the purity and chalky freshness of their youth or, if you appreciate more mature champagnes, wait a few more years or even decades for their candied, spicy notes to emerge. Our champagnes have a long future ahead of them and their destiny is in your hands!

"A vivacious rosé, with a minerally overtone and a well-meshed range of crunchy pear, peach skin, pickled ginger and blood orange zest flavors set on a refined, lacy mousse. Ends with a long, creamy finish."
