Current Vintage: Non-vintage
Grapes: 42% Chardonnay, 36% Pinot Noir and 22% Pinot Meunier
Founded in Reims in 1776, the Louis Roederer Champagne House has remained family-owned and independent for over 200 years.
Produced from grapes which come from, in equal amounts, the "La Riviere", "La Montagne" and "La Cote" vineyards, "Collection" consists of a base vintage, reserve wines aged in wood (sous bois) and wine from the "perpetual reserve", which has taken on the principles of the solera system since 2012.
Collection 242 opens with notes of white fruit, citrus zest and acacia blossom, which are followed by a light touch of roasted hazelnuts, the hallmark of the Chardonnay. The long, very pure structure ends on a pleasing saline note. Collectionâs freshness, precision and finesse make it an exceptionally approachable champagne, yet one that also evolves beautifully over time to reveal even more complex and precise flavours.
James Suckling: 94 Points.
