"Our reflection on "Collection" began ten years ago. The situation was clear and unstoppable. Climate change has afflicted Champagne for the last thirty years; we saw it as an opportunity, harvesting riper grapes, at the end of earlier harvests."
Jean-Baptiste Lécaillon, Cellar Master
Terroir Excellence : Inspired by the current era and the importance of sustainable viticulture, Champagne Premier Brut Collection 244 is the fruit of a careful search for excellence in the heart of the Champagne terroir. Faithful to its roots, the Maison Louis Roederer is committed to respecting its historical origins, selecting the best parcels of the "la Rivière", "la Montagne" and "la Côte" vineyards, both from the Louis Roederer estates and from long-standing partners .
Blending : The Cuvée Collection 244 is an ode to taste and hedonism, made up of 54% wines from the 2019 harvest. The Chef de Caves composes a new score each time, taking inspiration from the shade of the year and adding wines from the Réserve Perpétuelle and reserve wines aged in wood. Réserve Perpétuelle represents a significant percentage of the blend, ensuring balance and freshness, with 36% present in Collection 244.
Perfect Balance : Aged for almost 4 years in the cellars of the Maison Louis Roederer, the Champagne Premier Brut Collection 244 offers a cuvée of great fullness, supported by the maturity of the year, the freshness of the Réserve Perpétuelle and the complexity of the reserve wines aged in wood . With a power of great refinement, this champagne presents a wonderful balance, with a caressing and fruity delicacy given by the Meunier, which combines with the structure and flavor of the Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.
