From the historic cellars of Louis Roederer in Champagne, this wine represents a modern evolution of the house’s non-vintage style. The Collection series replaces the traditional Brut Premier, with each numbered release reflecting a specific base year, in this case 245, complemented by reserve wines aged in oak and stainless steel. The blend is built around Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier, sourced from estate vineyards, emphasising precision, balance, and a strong sense of identity.
Blending plays a central role, incorporating a significant proportion of reserve wines to add depth and consistency while allowing the base vintage to shape the overall profile. Ageing on lees enhances texture and integration, resulting in a more structured and refined expression compared to standard non-vintage Champagne. Presented in Magnum format, the wine benefits from slower maturation, preserving freshness and supporting greater complexity over time. Positioned in the premium tier, it offers a composed and contemporary interpretation of Champagne, combining richness with clarity.
