Champagne Louis Roederer, creator of the famous Cristal prestige cuvée, has been synonymous with the world’s
great champagnes since 1776. Brut Premier is the House’s flagship multi-vintage champagne—its most popular and
best-selling wine and the champagne that sets the house style for this esteemed producer.
| Tasting notes |
| Light gold in color, Brut Premier boasts a smooth, full mouth. This elegant champagne is a delicate balance of fruit
and acidity, an outstanding example of the Roederer tradition of producing wines of lean, firm structure with discreet
fruit and subtle toast flavors. |

| Joshua Greene, Wine & Spirits: "A clean and supple blend of red fruit with paler tones of pear and cherimoya, this has a soft middle balanaced by the tension of its acidity. It continues to open with air, round, gentle and energized. An elegant aperitif." 90 Points |
| Wine maker notes |
| Brut Premier is a blend of vintage wines, enhanced by the addition of 10% to 20% oak-aged wines from Roederer’s
extensive reserve cellars. Grapes are used from only the finest crus with a rating of 98 or more on Champagne’s
regional rating scale — Pinot Noir from the Valley of the Marne and Montagne de Reims; Chardonnay from the
Côte des Blancs. Roederer uses only the first pressings from these exceptional grapes for the standard-bearing Brut
Premier. Finished wine is cellar-aged for an additional four years before release. |
