Built around the exceptional 2022 growing season, the cuvée captures the richness and ripeness of a warm, predominantly dry year that produced beautifully concentrated fruit. The blend comprises 44% Chardonnay, 30% Pinot Noir and 26% Meunier, carefully selected from the House's historic vineyards and trusted winegrowing partners across Champagne. Fruit originates from three key vineyard areas, La Rivière, La Montagne and La Côte, bringing together complementary expressions of fruit, structure and chalky minerality. Under the direction of Cellar Master Jean-Baptiste Lécaillon, Collection 247 reflects a contemporary philosophy that celebrates the character of each growing season while preserving the unmistakable refinement of Louis Roederer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe composition combines 68% wines from the 2022 harvest with 27% perpetual reserve wines dating from 2012 to 2021 and 5% oak-aged reserve wines, creating remarkable complexity and harmony. Approximately 23% of the wines are vinified in oak, contributing subtle richness and textural depth without overwhelming the purity of the fruit. In the glass, the Champagne displays a luminous golden colour with exceptionally fine, delicate bubbles, releasing aromas of Mirabelle plum, William pear, white flowers and gently toasted spices. The palate is generous yet beautifully controlled, offering creamy texture, succulent orchard fruit and refreshing acidity that gradually reveal the characteristic chalky and saline undertones of the region. With its finely balanced Brut dosage of 7 grams per litre, Collection 247 delivers an elegant and persistent finish, making it equally compelling as a sophisticated aperitif or alongside oysters, delicate seafood, roasted poultry and refined seasonal cuisine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOSE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e– Ripe, expressive and delicately floral\u003cbr\u003eSun-ripened Mirabelle plum, William pear, yellow orchard fruits and white flowers, complemented by subtle vanilla, toasted almond and gently roasted spice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePALATE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e– Creamy, generous and beautifully balanced\u003cbr\u003eSucculent yellow fruits and ripe citrus unfold across a fresh, fleshy palate, supported by fine bubbles, lively acidity and subtle toasted complexity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFINISH\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e– Long, chalky and elegantly saline\u003cbr\u003ePersistent orchard fruit, delicate spice, chalky minerality and refreshing saline nuances lead to a precise, mouthwatering conclusion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReviews \u0026amp; Accolades\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003e“Quite rich initially but composed and complete with great crackling energy and a crisp, layered finish.”\u003c\/em\u003e — Jancis Robinson, JancisRobinson.com, 17\/20 Points\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFiner Details\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBrand - Louis Roederer\u003cbr\u003eRegion - Champagne\u003cbr\u003eCountry - France\u003cbr\u003eSize - 750ml\u003cbr\u003eTier - NV\u003cbr\u003eABV - 12.50%\u003cbr\u003eDosage - Brut\u003cbr\u003eGrape Blend \/ Cépage - 44% Chardonnay, 30% Pinot Noir, 26% Meunier\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Louis Roederer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44495909748823,"sku":"LR-247","price":99.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0043\/9258\/3217\/files\/7e4093c2-ca4f-494f-9286-12107e7902b4.webp?v=1792386563","url":"https:\/\/kentstreetcellars.com.au\/products\/louis-roederer-collection-247-nv","provider":"Kent Street Cellars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
