Brut Vintage Rose is rare and precious. Louis Roederer is one of the only Champagne Houses still to carry out maceration on skins, during which the Pinot Noir grapes- from the long established vineyards of Cumieres- are left to macerate to extract more fruit and color. Blended from 70% Pinot Noir and 30% Chardonnay, four years' maturing on lees are required for the development of a generous, creamy attack, along with a rich, ripe bouquet of berry fruits and fruit preserve, followed by floral hints of acacia and dried fruits. A wonderful accompaniment to salmon, lamb, veal, guinea fowl or even pheasant, soft cheeses and red fruit zabaglione.
