Roederer Estate L'Ermitage Brut 2006 LD

Disgorged November 2022 and after nearly 15 years on the yeast (178 months to be precise), another life begins for this late disgorged release.  Aromatics of hazelnut and roasted nuts fill the glass. As the wine warms up, notes of baked apples develop. Marzipan and hints of caramel and ground coffee give away its age once tasted. A layer of warm oak and pastry shop develop nicely. The 2006 Late Disgorged is very long in the mouth, with its creamy midpalate and tension of oak and skin tannins lingering in the finish.

Latest tasting done in Jan. 2024.
