The Blanc de Blancs 2005 is composed of 100% Chardonnay grapes. 15% to 20% of wines are aged in oak barrels with weekly batonnage. This Blanc de Blancs is bottled at low pressure (about 4 atmospheres) to preserve the elegance of the mousse. The 2005 Blanc de Blancs is made exclusively from Grand Cru fruit. No Malolactic fermentation occurs.
Vintage Louis Roederer Blanc de Blancs are matured for an average of 5 years in cellars before disgorgement. The dosagé of between 10 and 11 grams/liter is adapted to each vintage.
