Description
The Louis Roederer Collection 245 2× Glasses Gift Box comprises a 75cl bottle of the Collection 245 cuvee presented with two Jamesse Prestige champagne flutes in a luxury box. The champagne itself is a non-vintage blend centered on 55% from the 2020 harvest alongside 35% perpetual reserve (2012-2019) and 10 % oak-aged reserve wines, with 22% of the base undergoing malolactic fermentation. The blend is 41% Chardonnay, 35 % Pinot Noir and 24 % Meunier, matured nearly four years on lees before disgorgement and bottled at 12.5% ABV. In the glass it displays a golden hue and fine effervescence; aromas include yellow fruit, citrus, petals, almond and a subtle smokiness, while the palate is rich and velvety yet fresh, with saline, chalky and smoky overtones and a lingering mineral finish. The set is ideal as a premium gift and showcases both the champagne and bespoke glassware in one presentation.
