Louis Roederer Collection 246 is a modern evolution of the house’s non-vintage Brut, replacing the classic “Brut Premier.” Built on the foundation of the 2018 harvest, it is blended with a dynamic “réserve perpétuelle” and oak-aged reserve wines to create a Champagne of depth, freshness, and texture. Collection 246 represents a thoughtful, terroir-focused response to changing climate and shifting palates.

Notes of orchard fruits, lemon zest, almond, and subtle brioche on the nose. The palate is vibrant and textured, with a creamy mousse, layered fruit, and fine minerality. Balanced and expressive, with delicate bubbles and a refreshing, dry finish.

Excellent as an aperitif or paired with food—especially oysters, sushi, white fish, or grilled chicken with lemon. Its freshness and texture make it a versatile match for both light and moderately rich dishes.

Founded in 1776 in Reims, Louis Roederer is one of the world's most prestigious independent Champagne houses. Since 1833, when Louis Roederer inherited the business, the house has remained family-owned, maintaining complete control over every stage of viticulture and winemaking. Unlike many major Champagne producers, Louis Roederer owns more than 240 hectares of Grand Cru and Premier Cru vineyards, supplying the majority of its own fruit. The house is a pioneer in sustainable and biodynamic viticulture, carefully nurturing its historic vineyard holdings to preserve the character of each terroir. Alongside the legendary Cristal, the Collection range represents Roederer's modern vision of multi-vintage Champagne, combining precision, depth, and outstanding ageing potential.

The Champagne region combines specific climate, soil, and topography conditions that form a unique terroir currently used by approx. 15 000 vine-growers and 300 wine houses. The region has 4 sub-regions - Montagne de Reims, Côte des Blancs, Vallée de la Marne, and Côte des Bar. Each provides customers with a different style of sparkling wine. The dominant grapes are Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier which are mainly used in Montagne de Reims and Vallée de la Marne, while Chardonnay shows excellent results in Côte des Blancs. The region is even more appealing because of the so-called "Growe's Champagne" wines, the production of which is overseen by one family from start to finish - they grow and press grapes, make wine, and bottle it in the territory of one wine house. This gives the wine a true charm, aura, and unique flavor.
