Finesse is the buzzword here: The notes of baguette, citrus fruits, vanilla, hazelnut, white pepper and pear on the nose are part of a finely wrought balance that extends through the notes of green and golden apple, lemon and tarragon on the palate, plus the rich strawberry, spice, mint and oak notes from the added reserve wines in the blend. The sharp and refreshing acidity helps keep the otherwise too fruity palate in check, making this an impressive offering that will continue to reward those who choose to cellar this wine as much as it will please the impatient drinkers who will open it tomorrow.

Blend: 60% Chardonnay, 40% Pinot Noir

Roederer Estate Description

Roederer Estate Anderson Valley Brut builds on the 200-year winemaking tradition established by Champagne Louis Roederer in France. The first California sparkling wine produced by Roederer, the Anderson Valley Brut has established a reputation as one of California's premier sparklers. The Roederer Estate Brut is crisp and elegant with complex pear, spice and hazelnut flavors. It is fresh and lightly fruity with great finesse and depth of flavor. Equally comfortable with candlelight dinners and summer picnics, the Anderson Valley Brut is not just for toasting! It's also wonderful with egg dishes (think brunch), sushi, spicy Asian food, fish and white meats with creamy sauces.

Wine Enthusiast: 92 Points

Thickly moussed, Roederer s Brut, 60% Chardonnay blended with 40% Pinot Noir, aged two years on yeast is affordable and luxurious. A gorgeous, very dry sparkling wine with aromatics of honey, raisin, apple and pear, it is rich and soft and offers both depth and length. It s an ideal marriage of bright acidity and ripe fruit character.
