Read MoreViticulture
Brut Nature Rose Philippe Starck 2015 comes from Louis Roederer’s La Rivière vineyards in Cumières. The wine is based on a five-day Pinot Noir infusion, followed by the addition of field-blend juices. The final blend is 50% Pinot Noir, 37% Chardonnay and 13% Meunier. The Cumi?res origin gives ripe, sun-filled fruit and texture, while the zero-dosage style emphasises freshness, salinity and a direct expression of terroir.
Vinification
Brut Nature Rose Philippe Starck 2015 is made from Pinot Noir infused for five days, followed by the addition of Brut Nature white juices. The final co-fermented blend is 50% Pinot Noir, 37% Chardonnay and 13% Meunier. A total of 11% of the wines are vinified in oak, 30% undergoes malolactic fermentation and the dosage is 0 g/l, giving a dry, textured and expressive rose Champagne.
2015
The 2015 vintage was extraordinary and coincided with Champagne’s UNESCO World Heritage recognition. The season followed a continental pattern, with a mild, wet winter and a hot, dry summer. Record temperatures and water stress shaped the year, before welcome rain in the second half of August refreshed the vines. This late-season balance allowed the production of juicy, ripe and concentrated grapes with freshness and depth.
