Louis Roederer & Philippe Starck Brut Nature 2018 GIFTBOX

Louis Roederer & Philippe Starck Brut Nature 2018 is a striking expression of contemporary Champagne: precise, dry, and beautifully unadorned. This gift-boxed release brings together the house’s deep heritage in Champagne with Philippe Starck’s minimalist vision, resulting in a wine that feels both modern and highly refined.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows a bright, polished profile with clear citrus character, lemon zest, and hints of citrus oil. Beneath that freshness, there is a softer stone-fruit tone that gives the wine a silkier impression than many brut nature styles, along with subtle notes of toasted bread and roasted nuts. On the palate, it is medium to full in body with a fleshy, textural feel and excellent poise. The 2018 vintage includes a small amount of Pinot Blanc for the first time, adding depth to the mid-palate and a delicate almond and fresh hazelnut nuance. Despite its intensity, it remains elegant and balanced, with no hard oxidative edge and strong potential to develop further complexity over time.

Production
Sourced from Champagne’s chalk-rich terroirs, this wine is built for freshness, structure, and purity. The 2018 vintage marked the first inclusion of a small proportion of Pinot Blanc, chosen to enhance the wine’s mid-palate depth and texture, while extended time on the lees contributes additional complexity and a refined, creamy weight. It was disgorged in October 2024, with further release lots planned for subsequent disgorgement.

Food & Serving
Best enjoyed with fine seafood, oysters, sashimi, shellfish, or delicate poultry dishes, as well as young hard cheeses and lightly salted canapés. Serve well chilled at around 8–10°C, and decanting is not necessary; a brief rest in the glass will be enough for the wine to open gradually.

Producer
