Louis Roederer Collection 245 Champagne

This is the 245th blend of Roederer’s non-vintage Champagne. It is a fine wine, highlighting the blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, bringing in reserve wines to give richness and balance. It is fresh, beginning to show signs of maturity, with an apple aroma and a ripe palate. Drink now [into early 2030s]. Score – 94. (Roger Voss, Wine Enthusiast, Dec. 1, 2024)
