I have a treat to share with you today. In a group collaborative effort, I bring you a special video of a Louis Roederer @louisroederer_ champagne luncheon.
We held a vertical tasting of the Louis Roederer Brut Premier, 2013, and 2009 champagnes during this unique event, perfectly paired with an exquisite meal.
In a vertical tasting, different vintages of the same wine type from the same winery are tasted. This emphasizes differences between various vintages.
« The freshness, finesse, and brightness of Brut Premier make it the perfect wine for festive occasions. Its structured texture, richness, and length are distinctly winey. It is a full, complex wine that is both rich and powerful, whilst remaining a great classic. »— Jean-Baptiste Lécaillon, Cellar Master @jblfizz
The 2013 vintage was a golden yellow hue with clear, bright tints. This champagne is elegant, dynamic, and has a softly integrated effervescence. In contrast, the 2009 vintage is a champagne gold color with slightly copper tints. It is energetic and dazzling in the glass.
The menu started with crudités with wild garlic mayonnaise, aged parmesan cheese, cacciatorini, and handmade sourdough crackers. The appetizer featured ravioli with porcini mushrooms, followed by wild salmon with breakfast radishes and a coconut sauce. Lastly, an almond cake topped with raw apricot caramel was served.
