Champagne Louis Roederer Collection 246 is built around the 2021 harvest and complemented by the house’s Perpetual Reserve and selected reserve wines matured in oak.

Chardonnay plays a particularly important role in this edition, bringing freshness and precision to the blend. Aromas of yellow plum, nectarine and candied lemon are joined by white flowers, subtle vanilla and gentle toasted notes. The palate is finely textured, with creamy bubbles, fresh citrus, ripe orchard fruit and a distinctive chalky, saline finish.

Collection 246 shows how Roederer has moved beyond the idea of producing an identical non-vintage Champagne each year. Instead, each Collection reflects the character of its principal harvest while maintaining continuity through the Perpetual Reserve.

The result here is a Champagne with enough freshness to serve as an aperitif, but also the texture and complexity to accompany a meal.

Food Pairing: Pair with oysters, scallops, crab, lobster, sushi, grilled fish, roast chicken, mushroom risotto, Comté, or other firm cheeses.

Serve around 48–52°F in a tulip-shaped Champagne glass or white-wine glass.
