Louis Roederer Vintage 1999 is a vintage Champagne produced by Louis Roederer in Reims, France. The house of Louis Roederer is famous for its robust, full-bodied style of Champagnes. All Louis Roederer vintage releases are made using estate-grown grapes, which sets them apart from other Grand Marques. The late-release 1999 Vintage is available here in celebratory magnum format.

The 1999 Brut Vintage dates from the first year Jean-Baptiste Lecaillon took the reins as Chef des Caves chez Roederer. At disgorgement, he made a point of opting for a lower-than-usual dosage for this lower-acid vintage, with a view to long aging, and that choice is resoundingly vindicated today. Bursting with aromas of golden orchard fruit, peach and mandarin mingled with buttery pastry, brioche and iodine, it`s medium to full-bodied, fleshy and generous, with an enveloping, gourmand profile and a long, sapid finish. At its peak today, this complex and demonstrative mature Champagne is a delight to drink. - William Kelley
91 Vinous
Light gold. Ripe aromas of yellow plum, pear, apple, toffeed nuts and exotic orange peel. Round and juicy, with gentle acids framing the ripe pear, quince and apple flavors. A subtle note of sweet butter comes up with air, adding depth and an impression of lushness. Finishes with deep, persistent flavors of buttery orchard fruits.Josh Raynolds1st November 2006

Louis Roederer

A Titan of Fine Champagne

The Louis Roederer vineyards are located in three classic Champagne districts: the Montagne de Reims, the Vallée de la Marne and the Côte des Blancs, with 240 hectares situated exclusively in the Grands and Premiers Crus of the Marne. The diversity and fertility of these sites provide the House with an extensive and rich palette from which to fashion the wines from the 3 main champagne varieties: Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier, marrying sumptuous fruit and youthful freshness with the vinosity and depth of mature wines.

With a history spanning over two centuries, Cristal is the pinnacle of the House’s production and is only made in the finest vintages. First commissioned by Tsar Alexander II to create a special personal cuvée, Cristal was reintroduced by the House in 1924 as the first prestige cuvée champagne.

Travelling beyond the borders of the Champagne region itself, Champagne Louis Roederer founded the Roederer Estate in Mendocino County’s fog-shrouded Anderson Valley in 1982, producing one of California's finest sparkling wines including Quartet and Quartet Rosé.
