Collection

A new chapter
The facts were there for all to see. Climate change has affected the Champagne region over the last 30 years; we viewed this as an opportunity: by harvesting riper grapes in earlier harvests, we would be able to produce a vintage champagne more often. This new context, of course, affects the development of our wines. The possibilities offered in terms of the wines’ typicity and characteristics were broadening our winemaking scope.

The freedom of Louis Roederer style
A symbol of the freedom of the Louis Roederer style, Collection continues the story of this champagne that encapsulates all of Roederer's savoir-faire and reflects its constant pursuit of quality. Collection is based on a multi-vintage blend of wines from selected vineyard plots in the heart of the Champagne terroirs with a focus on sustainable growing.

Sourced from the "heart of the terroir"
We therefore carefully redefined all the plots for Collection, those on our Louis Roederer estates and those part of our historic partnerships, to retain only those plots rooted in this “Cœur de Terroir” (heart of the Terroir): lieux-dits, exposures, lands with strong identities, usually chalk soils, those most capable of giving us the best of their fruit, vintage after vintage.
