Why shop with us?
Louis Roederer and Philippe Starck’s 2018 Brut Nature is a poised, dry Champagne that balances citrus freshness with silky stone-fruit richness and a subtle toasted note. The 2018 is the first vintage to include a small amount of Pinot Blanc, adding depth to the mid-palate and a delicate almond and fresh-hazelnut character.
Tasting Notes
Expect a bright, pale-gold appearance with a fine stream of bubbles. The nose brings lemon, citrus oils and hints of toasted bread, while the palate is medium to full-bodied, with silky stone fruit, a supple, almost oily texture and a measured nutty note. It remains elegant rather than bitter or heavy.
The provided tasting notes do not specify a drinking window. Its freshness and layered texture make it appealing to enjoy now; any further bottle ageing will depend on careful storage.
Production
The 2018 blend brings together Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier, Chardonnay and, for the first time in this cuvée, a small proportion of Pinot Blanc. Extended time on the lees contributes to the wine’s refined texture and toast-like notes; this batch was disgorged in October 2024. Specific vineyard, harvest and vinification details were not provided.
Food & Serving
Serve well chilled, around 8–10°C, with oysters, scallops, simply prepared white fish or roast poultry; its nutty, toasty notes also suit aged hard cheeses. Decanting is generally unnecessary—pour into tulip-shaped Champagne glasses to let the aromas open, and allow a few minutes in the glass if desired.
Producer
Founded in Reims in 1776, Louis Roederer is one of Champagne’s historic houses and remains independently family-owned. Its collaboration with designer Philippe Starck brings a distinctive creative perspective to this Brut Nature cuvée, while Roederer’s long-standing reputation rests on precision and a strong focus on its Champagne vineyards.
