A Decadent Evening at Hide
In October, iBestTravel hosted an exclusive supper club at Hide, a stylish restaurant located in London’s Piccadilly. This captivating event allowed guests to indulge in the finest vintage Champagnes from Louis Roederer, all expertly paired with dishes crafted by acclaimed chef Ollie Dabbous, renowned for his innovative and ingredient-led culinary approach.
The Rich Legacy of Louis Roederer
Louis Roederer boasts a prestigious history in the Champagne industry. Notably, Tsar Alexander II of Russia was such an admirer that he requested a unique blend exclusively for himself, leading to the creation of the first cuvée de prestige, known as Cristal. Today, the house continues to produce some of the world’s most exceptional wines, celebrated for their purity, intensity, and complexity. Founded in 1776, Louis Roederer remains one of the last family-owned Champagne producers.
Commitment to Quality and Sustainability
The founder, Louis Roederer, took over the Champagne house from his uncle and implemented a conscientious production philosophy. Unlike many of his contemporaries, who sourced grapes externally, Roederer cultivated his vineyards, acquiring premium land and meticulously understanding the unique characteristics of each terroir. This close relationship with their land showcases the family’s steadfast commitment to sustainable farming practices, working harmoniously with nature.
