Louis Roederer Collection 245 NV 1.5L

Product Description:
Louis Roederer Collection 245 NV is a modern expression of Champagne from one of the region’s most prestigious houses, crafted with a focus on precision, freshness, and sustainability. The Collection series represents a shift from traditional non-vintage Champagne toward a multi-vintage blend built around a specific harvest—in this case, the 2020 vintage forming the base of Collection 245. Sourced from Louis Roederer’s estate vineyards across the Montagne de Reims, Vallée de la Marne, and Côte des Blancs, the wine reflects a commitment to organic and biodynamic practices and meticulous vineyard selection.

The blend is composed primarily of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Meunier, complemented by reserve wines aged in oak and drawn from a perpetual reserve that adds depth and consistency. Vinification is carried out with precision to preserve freshness while enhancing texture and complexity. Presented in magnum format, the wine benefits from slower ageing, offering greater harmony and longevity. The result is a Champagne that balances vibrancy with structure, delivering both immediate appeal and the ability to evolve with time.
