The Louis Roederer Champagne Collection 245 is an elegant, multi-layered
champagne that embodies the combination of tradition, innovation and sustainable
viticulture at the highest level. It comes from the world-famous Louis Roederer
champagne house, which has been family-owned since 1776 and is one of the last
major independent producers in Champagne. The number 245 refers to the 245th
harvest since the house was founded - a symbol of history, continuity and a
respectful approach to nature.

The Collection 245 is based on the 2020 vintage, supplemented by carefully
selected reserve wines from a "Reserve Perpetuelle" solera system that combines
freshness and aromatic complexity. In addition, up to 10% reserve wines aged in
oak are added to create depth and texture. The cuvee is made up of around 54%
Chardonnay, 35% Pinot Noir and 11% Meunier - a masterful blend that presents
finesse, structure and fruit in perfect balance. The champagne matures on the
lees for several years before being disgorged and given a moderate dosage.
