Louis Roederer NV Brut, Reims, France

Crack opened this bottle of bubbly with a friend and his family over dinner. Not a bad way to get rid of the Monday blues :P

Appearance:  Nice fine bubbles with a light lemon hue.

Nose: Youthful, medium intensity filled with ripe apples and pears.

Palate/ Flavour: Mouthwatering acidity with strong notes of ripe citrus fruits and minerals, coupled with a medium finish on the palate. Subtle hot cross bun aftertaste.

Comments: Paired this with Korean BBQ pork and beef, along with various korean kimchi and side dishes. Excellent palate cleanser. Too bad there wasn’t enough to try it with the delicious vinegar and mustard paste infused  korean cold black wheat noodles though.
