From Magnum 😍. Pure ripe strawberries. An expertly crafted Pinot Noir dominant Champagne.

At the Come Taste the Stars Dinner hosted by Tyson Stelzer. Tyson was gobsmacked by this Champagne giving it 100 points. The colour was Salmon with a touch of copper. Strawberry notes with rose petals. Louis Roederer have been working hard on their biodynamic regime in the vineyard. Biodynamics create greater vigour in the vine allowing the roots to penetrate deeper into the chalk. Incredible depth length and precision - stays in the mouth for minutes. Only 31 bottles came to Australia and 8 bottles used up on this dinner. One could write pages about the production techniques used in this Rose Champagne - like Carbonic Maceration of the Pinot bunches by Jean-Baptiste Lecaillon the winemaker. At Montrachet Restaurant in Brisbane.

So so fine. Stunning finesse. Unreal beads and mousse. Just so harmonious. Needed an hour. Not a 10.0 as it will get there with age.

Amazing wine. Drunk in magnum. Complex nose of ripe fruits (apple, stone fruit), brioche. Magic happens on the palate, where all the grace of this champagne takes place: it is, at the same time, light and extremely elegant, but also powerful and mouth filling, with chalkiness giving away to creamy after taking over on tart flavors.
