Roederer Estate
Brut
93 points
The current
release of the NV Estate Brut is made up mainly of fruit from the 2015 vintage.
It is a blend of 60% Chardonnay and 40% Pinot Noir and was made with about ten
grams per liter dosage. Disgorged in October of 2018, it has a fresh, open nose
with pure fruit expression: crushed apples, pears and lemon peel mingle with
touches of stone, flowers and toast. The medium-bodied palate offers a lovely
dichotomy of toasty fruits with uplifted citrusy, minerally accents with a
finely beaded mousse, and it finishes long and ultra fresh. 90,000 cases
produced.
