Louis Roederer 2003

The 2003 Brut offers tons of harmony in a generous, inviting style. The ripe pear fruit is particularly succulent, but the wine also possesses more than enough minerality to provide balance. This medium-bodied wine closes with a long, clean finish that invites a second taste. It is a very strong 2003. The 2003 Brut is 70% Pinot Noir from Montagne de Reims and Verzenay, plus 30% Chardonnay from Mesnil, Avize and Oger. This is Lot: L030993B 100007, disgorged November 20th, 2007. Anticipated maturity: 2008-2018.

Pale. Quite rich and creamy on the nose – definitely not Funky Town in style! Really mouthfilling and beautifully balanced but super discreet... Not much real guts or density but a very good 2003.
