The Rosé Vintage Brut by Roederer is produced from a blend consisting of 65% Pinot Nero and 35% Chardonnay, with grapes coming from Cumeriès, a well-known municipality where the soils are clay-limestone. The fermentation of the base wines mostly takes place in steel, with 20% that ferments instead in wooden barrels. The refermentation occurs in the bottle according to the classic or champenoise method. The long aging of 48 months in the bottle gives the liquid greater complexity and depth, just as the calibrated dosage is a sort of trademark of the Roederer family.
The Brut Vintage Rosé presents itself in the glass with a coppery pink color and a fine, persistent perlage. An extremely varied nose, where the richness of nuances does not preclude the generous brightness that the liquid brings as a gift. Citrus, pastry cream, currant, and dog rose are just some of the descriptors that flash in the mind at the first sniff. The sip is no less and reveals a liquid in which creaminess and the contribution of freshness and sapidity are beautifully fused, a true manifesto of elegance. A must-have bottle for sparkling wine lovers, especially if rosé, as this bottle stands at the top of its category.
