#20 on the Wine Spectator's Top 100 Wines of 2024
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. Founded in 1982, Roederer Estate is nestled in Mendocino County’s cool, fog-shrouded Anderson Valley. As the northern California outpost of Champagne Louis Roederer, it builds upon a centuries-old tradition of advanced viticulture and fine winemaking. With 600 acres of proprietary vineyards, it is among the very few American sparkling wine houses that only sources estate-grown fruit. Special oak-aged reserve wines are added to each blend in both the multi-vintage and vintage cuvées, which are 100% estate-bottled.
