Champagne Louis Roederer Collection 243 Brut is created from the oak-aged reserve wines, complemented by the 2018 harvest, Collection 243 is tied to the Champagne roots and the foundations of the Reims-based Champagne House. Collection’s number represents the number of blends created since the birth of the Louis Roederer Champagne House and enables wine lovers to select their wine based on the level of youth or maturity that they desire and appreciate.
Champagne Louis Roederer Collection 243 Brut has a bright, golden hue color followed by a fine, lively mousse with lingering threads of bubbles. The bouquet is open and rich yet also wonderfully fresh. It offers an explosion of ripe, delicate fruit with intense notes of yellow fruit from the Pinot noir complemented by sweet citrus fruits and delicate notes of white flowers from the Chardonnay. The nose opens up to reveal autolytic characters and evolves towards smoky, roasted notes and freshly baked pastries. The palate is deep and dense with a big, well-structured backbone. The texture is simply mesmerising with its fleshy mouthfeel from the Pinot noir that coats the palate before giving way to an incredible saline freshness with a pleasant hint of bitterness. This wine combines the strength, intensity and power of the delectably ripe Pinot noirs which are balanced to perfection by the chalky freshness and density from the Chardonnay which forms the majority of the blend.
