Description
Roederer Vintage 2008 is a cuvée that magnifies a very fine vintage. It features notes of white fruit, citrus zest and a floral touch.
Roederer has structured its Vintage 2008 around Pinots Noirs from the Montagne de Reims, powerful grapes that produce wines that are sometimes closed and rough, requiring time to open up.
Roederer Vintage 2008 is a blend of 70% Pinot Noir and 30% Chardonnay. 37% of the wines were vinified in oak foudres with weekly stirring of the lees.
Malolactic fermentation is not carried out to preserve freshness and ageing potential. The dosage is Brut, around 9 g/l.
Roederer Vintage 2008 has a brilliant gold color.
This vintage has a nose of ripe fruit, with hints of pear, vine peach and citrus zest. On the second nose, aromas of dried fruit emerge.
The palate is dense and round, with juicy, fleshy fruit. The finish reveals hints of citrus, spices, fresh wood and dark chocolate.
The finish is dense, intense and energetic.
Tasting
By Patrick BorrasRobe
Roederer Brut Vintage 2008 is a golden-yellow champagne with golden highlights. Its bubbles are very fine, delicate and intense, with a beautiful sparkle.
Nose
The nose is surprisingly fresh. Fruity notes, with a touch of citrus, first orange, then yellow lemon. The nose evolves towards more complex aromas of white flowers and lime blossom. The nose is slightly honeyed, with very airy, subtle aromas. It's a champagne that resembles this fine house, and which reflects this very fine 2008 vintage, full of finesse and balance.
Palate
On the palate, the attack is clean, round and suave, with excellent balance. The freshness of this subtle, delicate champagne is the guiding principle, yet it also retains a beautiful intensity that adds a certain character.
Service
The Roederer Vintage 2008 can accompany an aperitif as well as an entire meal.
