Description
Louis Roederer Brut Nature Philippe Starck 2012 is a striking expression of Champagne made without dosage, allowing the character of the vintage and terroir to shine with complete clarity. Born from Louis Roederer’s search for parcels that could thrive in challenging conditions, it combines biodynamic farming, meticulous cellar work, and the minimalist design philosophy of Philippe Starck. The result is a Champagne that feels both modern and deeply rooted in one of the region’s most defining innovations.
Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows a brilliant golden hue with a fine, persistent mousse. The nose is vivid and layered, with aromas of wild flowers, citrus peel, ripe stone fruit such as peach, and a subtle thread of toasted nuts.
On the palate, it is harmoniously structured and impressively complex, balancing power with freshness. Crystalline mineral notes, gentle spice, and a taut, dry finish give the wine real precision, while the long aftertaste suggests excellent aging potential.
Production
The fruit comes from select chalk-rich parcels near Épernay in Cumières, Hautvillers, and Vertus, vineyards that proved especially resilient in dry, warm conditions and are ideal for expressing purity and tension. The grapes are biodynamically farmed and vinified with care: around 25% is fermented in oak, the rest in stainless steel, and no malolactic fermentation is used to preserve freshness and structure. After five years on lees in bottle, the wine is disgorged with no dosage and rests a further six months before release.
Food & Serving
This is a superb match for refined seafood, sushi, oysters, sashimi, lobster, veal tartare, or lightly seasoned poultry and shellfish dishes. Serve well chilled, ideally around 8–10°C, and consider brief aeration in the glass rather than decanting, so the wine can open gradually while keeping its energy and finesse.
