Wine Spectator - Alison Napjus - December 31, 2014

94 Points Highly Recommended "Tangy raspberry and black cherry fruit is underscored by smoke and mineral accents in this finely knit, racy rosé Champagne. Mouthwatering, with hints of apple blossom, lemon zest and creamed almond on the finish. Drink now through 2029."

The Story

In order for grapes to be used in the creation of a great rosé champagne, they have to attain perfect maturity, which is sometimes difficult to achieve in the changeable Champagne climate. This is why Louis Roederer decided to invest in the vineyards at Cumières, where the shallow calcareous clay soil, which is on south-facing slopes bathed in the light reflected from the banks of the river Marne, enables the grapes to attain optimum phenolic ...

Vintage 2009

This warm year started with a cold winter and mild spring temperatures. Early summer was variable but August and September provided ample sunshine and warmth contributing to fine grape health. Pinot Noir especially excelled. Grape harvest, of generally high sugar content yet soft acidity, started on September 8th. 2009 is a year of generous wines that showed well early.

Written Notes

Rosé 2009, which has a salmon pink colour with golden tints, produces a persistent stream of delicate bubbles.
It has an intense fruitiness with a blend of red fruits (Morello cherry), blood oranges, and vineyard peach, with acidy, slightly candied notes. After a few minutes, nuances of pastries emerge with some delicate autolysis.
The attack is round and fruity, marked by grapefruit and citrus zest.

Its full body and density are sustained by the almost limestone freshness: the freshness and texture blend to give the wine its persistence. The effervescence integrates well into the juicy and concentrated envelope produced by the exceptionally mature flesh of the Pinot noir fruits. Fine notes of lightly roasted cocoa beans add generosity and create a sensation of harmony.
This 2009 Rosé has all the hallmarks of a fine, sunny vintage, with remarkable purity and finesse.
