Maker Notes

Driven by a new ambition and desire for freedom, the Louis Roederer Champagne House is entering a new phase in its history with the creation of Collection. Current times, climate change and the importance of sustainable and respectful winegrowing practices that accentuate the qualities of the terroir have become central to our ethos and our work.

The finest works are often forged by constraint and adversity. Driven by a new energy, the Maison decided to reinvent its blends, reshape its expertise and rethink its methods in order to fall into step with Nature's new tempo and continue to evolve, advance and adapt.

All the plots of vines used for the creation of Collection, i.e. those owned by Louis Roederer as well as those belonging to our longstanding partners, have therefore been reevaluated to retain only those that are best suited to the Collection identity, rooted in the heart of the Champagne terroir.

This quest for the Champagne region’s most ‘expressionist’ terroirs has led us to a myriad of different origins, lieu-dits, exposures, lands and predominantly limestone soils, all with the ability to endure over the long term. This approach enables Louis Roederer not only to better tackle climate change, and do so whilst acquiring resilience and complexity, but also to guarantee the freshness of its wines and the continuation of the ‘Louis Roederer style’.

Created from the Perpetual Reserve and the oak-aged reserve wines, complemented by the finest successes of the 2018 harvest, Collection 243 is tied to our Champagne roots and the foundations of our Reims-based Champagne House. We therefore give ourselves the freedom to create the blend on the basis of whatever Nature gives us.

This decidedly Epicurean champagne is the Louis Roederer’s multi-vintage champagne par excellence! 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.

The grapes from the province of Treviso, an area that has always produced high quality Prosecco, give this sparkling wine a luminous straw yellow hue and for its emphatic yet stylish mousse. The bouquet is redolent of golden apple, while the palate is appealingly marked by aromatic notes of golden apple, white peach and honey.

Mionetto’s most classic line reflects its connections with the history of the winery in the elegant presentation of the bottle, which features an oblique label design that has always been a characteristic of the winery. The refined design of the label reflects the style of the products. Prestige, quality in every detail!

APPELLATION: Treviso DOC. The grapes are grown in the Veneto region of Italy, in an area near the Valdobbiadene DOCG area, on the sloping hills just north of Treviso. Soil is alluvial with an important presence of clay.

GRAPE VARIETY: 100% Glera.

HARVEST PERIOD: The grapes are harvested in the second half of September

VINIFICATION: Wine is made from the soft pressing of the grapes with the must separated from the skins. Secondary fermentation (Charmat method) takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel.

SENSORY PROFILE

Crafted from Premier Cru Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, Ruinart Rosé, the first established Champagne House, embodies a complex and sophisticated tribute to the classic Ruinart style. This fine, elegant champagne showcases the signature Ruinart taste, thanks to its high concentration of Chardonnay grapes. It reveals delightful notes of berries, guava, and wild roses, resulting in a smooth, balanced, and fruit-forward wine with a refined body. Its beautiful appearance features a pink hue accented with gold.

Enjoy RICH Rosé experience at its best
Veuve Clicquot's RICH Rosé cuvée is at its most expressive when enjoyed on ice or very chilled at 4°C (39.2°F). At Veuve Clicquot, our serving ritual is to fill a glass halfway and gently add an ice sphere. An ideal accompaniment for sunny days on the terrace and balmy summer nights. RICH Rosé will be best paired with dishes such as smoked fish, spicy fruit salad, sweet potato or even chicken skewer yakitori.

Clicquot Yellow Label truly is the House’s signature champagne – balancing all 4 dimensions defining the Veuve Clicquot style: freshness, strength, aromatic richness & silkiness.

Details
The predominance of Pinot Noir provides the structure that is so typically Veuve Clicquot, while a touch of Meunier rounds out the blend. Chardonnay adds the elegance and finesse essential in a perfectly balanced wine. To ensure the quality and continuity of the Yellow Label’s style, the blend can be created with up to 45 % reserve wines. Veuve Clicquot has the largest and the most varied collection of reserve wines (400 wines, aged up to 30 years).

The wine is characterized by a brilliant golden yellow color and a fine, persistent effervescence. Yellow Label Brut cuvée reveals an aromatic profile dominated by notes of white and yellow fruits like pear, apple, and peach. Hints of citrus fruits like mandarin and grapefruit blend harmoniously with gourmand aromas of brioche. Yellow Label Brut is structured by Pinot Noir, the true backbone of the wine. It offers flavors of pear, peach, and pastry enhanced by a touch of dried fruit from aging on lees, which gives it a true aromatic richness.
