Description
The Champagne Brut Collection 242 represents the rebirth of Louis Roederer, an exercise in style in perfect balance between youth and maturity, seduction and character.
Born from a cuvée of 40% Pinot Noir, 40% Chardonnay and 20% Pinot Meunier, composed for almost 45% of reserve wines, of which a part aged in cask, this champagne rests for 3 years in the cellar and for a further 6 months after disgorgement. It is an innovative champagne that more than any other expresses the terroir, for the choice of grapes based on the parcels; to create this champagne, in fact, the Chef de cave Jean-Baptiste Lécaillon uses all his experience to make the most of the vintage grapes (which make up 55% of the cuvée), favoring the variety that has given the best results for a champagne every different time.
A unique Champagne that is never equal to itself, which expresses a refined and persistent elegance, which on the palate is energetic and structured, with intense and complex aromas, and with the citrus notes typical of Pinot Noir that chase aromas of ripe and greedy fruit characteristic of Chardonnay and Pinot Meunier on a pleasant base of brioche and toasted hazelnut. The finish is long and vibrant, with a persistence worthy of a great champagne.
Excellent as an aperitif, the Collection 242 is ready to amaze you from sip to sip!
