  Fortnum's Brut Reserve N.V, Louis Roederer Bottle

  Catalogue Code:2004179

  • Our Brut Reserve Champagne is specially produced for Fortnum & Mason by Louis Roederer. The grapes (including Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier and Chardonnay) are sourced from the young vines of Louis Roederer and also purchased fruit from the Marne. The dominance of black varieties offers roundness and complexity, while the Chardonnay provides elegance and freshness. Ideal as an aperitif, its structure enables it to be associated with a wide variety of dishes.
    
    Champagne Louis Roederer
    Roederer began life in 1760 as Dubois Père & Fils, a champagne firm that came into the hands of Louis Roederer in 1833. A Key event in Roederer's success was when it broke into the Russian market with the creation in 1876 of a special cuvée for the Tsars. This, of course, was Cristal, regarded by many as the first prestige cuvée. Today, even Roederer's entry-level champagne , the Pinot Noir-based Brut Premier, is seen as better than most producer's vintage champagnes.
    
    It is thought that part of the secret of this success is that, unusually for champagne houses, Roederer predominantly uses grapes from its own vineyards: 180 hectares of vineyards make up some 80 percent of its production.
