Green apple, lemon blossom, lime, brioche, and chalk. Medium to full-bodied with fine, beautifully persistent bubbles and good mid-palate substance. Almost sharp but polished on the finish, with a long, refreshing acidity. It is crisp.
What the domaine has to say
- It was a desire for freedom, to push the quality of multi-millennial blends even further, that led the winemakers to embark on a new approach: the creation of Collection, a worthy successor to Brut Premier. A living Champagne, more contemporary than ever!
- Collection represents an evolution in structure, form and style, the dawn of a new chapter for the house as it continues to write with passion.
- This new cuvée Collection is the expression of the art of blending at Maison Roederer and of our winegrower roots, notably through the selection of plots chosen from the heart of the Champenois terroir. Symbolizing the House's freedom of style, Collection draws on the freshness of a "perpetual reserve" created in 2012, which, complemented by the depth of reserve wines aged in wood, gives Collection a complex personality that reveals itself over time.
