Sparkling dry
The result of a collaboration between Louis Roederer and architect Philippe Starck, Brut Nature Rosé 2018 is a Champagne that deliberately breaks luxury clichés in order to return to the essence: a pure expression of terroir. With no dosage, no compromises, and no masking sugar, this is an honest, precise, and uncompromising voice of Champagne, presented in an exclusive gift box.
This rosé Champagne is born in Cumières, near the Montagne de Reims, where Pinot Noir achieves a distinctive balance of ripeness and structure. The 2018 vintage, warm and dry, allowed the grapes to reach excellent phenolic maturity while preserving the natural acidity essential for the Brut Nature style.
The aromatic profile is clear and precise: wild strawberries, raspberries, and red currants intertwine with citrus peel, pomegranate, and a subtle smoky–mineral edge. With aeration, notes of wet stone, sea breeze, and dried herbs emerge. This is not a sweet rosé, but a serious, refined Champagne.
On the palate, it is completely dry, vibrant, and exacting. The texture is clean, with fine, well-integrated bubbles. The tension between red berry acidity, citrus freshness, and chalky salinity creates a firm yet elegant impression. The finish is long and mineral-driven, with a delicate bitterness and an absolute sense of purity.
The Champagne is produced without dosage (0 g/l), using partial fermentation with natural yeasts and extended lees ageing to build texture without any sweetness. Philippe Starck’s vision is unmistakable: not to embellish or soften, but to let the Champagne speak entirely for itself.
Serve at 8–10 °C, and pair beautifully with oysters with lemon zest, tuna tartare with citrus and olive oil, or goat’s cheese with fresh herbs and red berries.
The Louis Roederer Champagne House, established in 1776 in Reims, France, has been crafting top-quality champagne, esteemed worldwide, for over 240 years. This independent, family-owned house gained fame for creating the legendary "Cristal prestige cuvee." To this day, the company's management remains in the hands of the family, with the seventh-generation representative, Frédéric Rouzaud, currently at the helm. Louis Roederer distinguishes itself by producing the majority of its champagnes exclusively from grapes grown in its own vineyards, a significant portion of which are located in prestigious Grand Cru territories.
