Here is the stunning new 2015 L’Ermitage by Roederer Estate.

Roederer Estate

July 14, 2022

One of the storied California houses for sparkling wine. Roederer Estate dates back to 1982. At the time it was the vision of Jean-Claude Rouzaud, president of Louis Roederer, who saw  the cool climate and rolling fog of the Anderson Valley to craft some of the region’s finest sparkling wines. The 580 acre estate produces four sparkling wines: the multi-vintage Roederer Estate Anderson Valley Brut, debuted in 1988, the Brut Rosé and Roederer Estate's vintage tees de cuvee, L'Ermitage and L'Ermitage Rosé. 

Currently the house is under the leadership of Jean-Claude’s son, Frédéric Rouzaud. I loved the new wines. The outstanding NV Roederer Estate ‘Brut Rose’ Sparkling Wine (OB, 92) is a steal at under 40 dollars. This shows very pretty florals and red fruits with great tension and salty undertones. which is fresh and beautifully textured with a very pretty red fruit profile. Dense, massive and possessing a magical sense of mouthfeel, the 2015 Roederer Estate ‘L’Ermitage’ Sparkling Wine (OB, 95) is a must buy for any serious collector of new world bubbles. Learn more about this outstanding sparkling wine house at https://roedererestate.com Here are the beautiful new wines by Roederer Estate.

NV Roederer Estate Sparkling Wine- A great value buy, the NV Roederer Estate Sparkling Wine is a blend of 60% Chardonnay with the remainder Pinot Noir that was aged on the lees for more than two years. Toasted sourdough bread and ripe banana notes combine with lemon rind on the nose. The wine comes off big but also very refined with soft bubbles that combine with the stony and salty nuances of the wine. At $30.00 USD this is a steal! Drink 2022-2029- 92

NV Roederer Estate Rose Sparkling Wine- The NV Roederer Estate Rose Sparkling Wine was disgorged in August 2021 and blends 56% Pinot Noir and 44% Chardonnay. Given 8 G/L dosage, this reveals its very pale salmon hue. Very salty and fresh with crunchy cranberry, red rose water, mulberry and walnut notes, this is both refined and delicious Rose sparking wine that is best consumed over the next seven plus years. Drink 2022-2029- 92

2015 Roederer Estate ‘L’Ermitage’ Sparkling Wine- Beautifully done, the 2015 Roederer Estate ‘L’Ermitage’ Sparkling Wine offers some seriously good value and is amongst the best of its kind in North America. A blend of 52% Chardonnay and 48% Pinot Noir, this includes roughly 5% of reserve wine from the 2010, 2012 and 2014 vintages. Ripe starfruit and allspice dusted brioche tones combine with the silky mousse and wonderful mid-palate weight. Big and bright, with plenty of mouth-watering acidity, enjoy this wonderfully evolved ‘L’Ermitage’ sparkling wine over the next ten plus years. Drink 2022-2032- 95
