2017 Louis Roederer Blanc De Blancs Graphic Gift Boxed

Champagne

Champagne sits at the northern edge of ripeness in France, which is the point. Cool seasons and deep chalk give grapes with sharp acidity and little weight, raw material that becomes complete only after a second fermentation in the bottle and years on the lees. Chardonnay comes mainly from the Côte des Blancs, Pinot Noir from the Montagne de Reims and the Côte des Bar, and Meunier from the Vallée de la Marne.
