WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Louis Roederer Brut Vintage 2015 is produced using a blend of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. A significant portion of the wine (34%) is fermented in oak, and 24% undergoes malolactic fermentation. Following fermentation, the wine is aged on lees for an average of four years, with a minimum of six months rest after disgorgement. Louis Roederer employs organic and biodynamic farming practices in its estate vineyards.
