Louis Roederer Champagne Brut Nature 2015 by Philippe Starck cl 75

Great things are often born out of difficulties….
The 2012 vintage is among the most difficult and delicate ever seen in Champagne. Low yields, the result of climatic adversity related to late-season continental conditions, allowed a rare and epic level of ripeness to be achieved, resulting in rich, full-bodied and structured wines worthy of Champagne’s greatest vintages.

VINTAGE
Extraordinary vintage in the year of Champagne’s recognition as a UNESCO World Heritage Site! 2015 is perfectly in line with the continental trend of the decade: mild, wet winter and hot, dry summer! The hot and sunny summer will be remembered for record heat and drought… Fortunately, in the second half of August, a lifesaving rain gave much-needed relief to the vines. Ripening, thanks to this cool-weather finish, will yield juicy, ripe and concentrated grapes! The ambition of this thousandth? Capturing the essence of a spectacular vintage!
TASTING NOTES
Yellow color, with iridescent highlights.
Dynamic and regular effervescence.
Pure, soaring, vertical, rich and concentrated bouquet. It evokes ripe but elegant aromas: fine and delicate citrus zest (lemon, orange), vanilla (Bourbon vanilla from Madagascar) warmer nuances of baked apple, tarte tatin, tending gradually toward crisp notes.
The palate offers a marked and singular contrast: undeniably expressionist thanks to the broad, juicy, almost sensual texture of the clay soils of Cumières in a year rich in sunshine, but also resolutely minimalist thanks to a real vein of freshness, pure, mineral, stimulating, due to the zero dosage. Ripe citrus fruits mingle with hot pebbles to further enhance the salivation and umami-related aspect. The finish is energetic, light and ethereal.
