Roederer Estate’s sparkling wines are produced using only Estate grown grapes from the winery’s own
vineyards. Carrying on the tradition of Champagne Louis Roederer in France, special oak-aged reserve
wines are added to each blend. The multi-vintage Anderson Valley Brut debuted in 1988 to great acclaim.,
followed by the Brut Rosé and Roederer Estate’s L’Ermitage.
| Tasting notes |
| Excellent balance and great finesse. Delicate appleand lemon characters, soft and fresh on the palate,
with citrus and fresh honey characters on a long finish. It is well-balanced with little acidity-an elegant
and very complex wine. |
| Wine maker notes |
| Roederer Estate wines are made with just the cuvée pressing; no première ordeuxième taille is used. The
wines for the dosage and disgorging liquor added to the L’Ermitage were chosen from five different wines
to find the best balance and complexity. As with previous vintages, the blend is specially crafted to increase
the wine’s ability to age. After disgorging, the L’Ermitage is aged at least six months in the bottle before
release. |
| Food pairing |
| L’Ermitage suits wonderfully with chicken and cream sauces, smoked salmon and crab, as well as fettucine
with prawns in a sparkling butter sauce. |
