Cellar/Tasting Notes
The jewel in the crown. Ripe, and spicy with hints of hazelnut and citrus. Classic and elegant. Wine Enthusiast (WE): 96 "2003 was a great vintage for Roederer Estate. This, their top vintage wine, is very great, and the price is an absolute steal for this world class sparkler. It’s enormously rich in the strawberries from Pinot Noir and the limes from Chardonnay, while the toast and rich lees combine for a perfect champagne-style smokiness. And so smooth, it's like a kiss of silk..." Wine Spectator (WS): 93 "Elegant and sleek, yet complex, with cinnamon and green apple aromas that lead to rich flavors of pear and lemon custard layered with brioche and mineral. Drink now through 2015." |
