From the revered cellars of Louis Roederer, the Brut Vintage 'Late Release' 1999 is Champagne with the energy of a very good idea at 11pm. This 1999 vintage, born from a glorious year and aged far beyond expectation on its lees, unveils a complex dance of toasted brioche, roasted nuts, and sun-kissed apricots. Imagine mature stone fruit and honey, balanced by a vibrant acidity that keeps things wonderfully fresh. A truly harmonious and intricate expression, this is the kind of bottle that'll have your guests asking where you got it – and you pretending you forgot.
