Description:

At Louis Roederer, winemaking falls under the watchful eye and talented hand of Champagne legend Jean-Baptiste Lcaillon. Boasting 240 hectares of Premium and Grand Cru vineyards, Lcaillon has a wealth of high quality grapes to work with. Collection 245 is an exciting new release from Louis Roederer with a refreshingly noble message at its core. Pioneer of sustainable and biodynamic practices, Lcaillon wanted to highlight the impact of global warming with this range. Its a fizz that ensures there is ample freshness from the Perpetual Reserve to balance the ripe flavours. He started this eternal reserve back in 2012 and has been building on it since. It makes up a third of the blend to this exceptionally fine, creamy, toasty fruit fizz..

Tasting Note:

Fine bubbles and a nose of fresh fruit and hawthorn. The inclusion of reserve wines gives it the complexity and roundness characteristic of Louis Roederer champagnes. Smooth, complex palate mingling flavours of apple and pear with blackberries, raspberries and cherries. This is a structured and elegantly mature wine, lively on the mouth with a smooth palate.
