About the Winery:
Founded in 1982, Roederer Estate is nestled in Mendocino County’s fog-shrouded, Anderson Valley. As the California property of Champagne Louis Roederer, Roederer Estate builds upon a centuries-old tradition of fine winemaking. Roederer's unique winemaking style is based on two elements: complete ownership of its vineyards and the addition of oak-aged reserve wines to each year's blend or cuvee to create complex, dry and harmonious sparkling wines.

Notes From The Winemaker:
As with most roses primarily made with more Pinot Noir than Chardonnay, the Roederer Estate Rose is a blend of 60% Pinot Noir and 40% Chardonnay. For color, the winemaker prepares a small portion of Pinot Noir with extended maceration and adds about 5 percent to the blend before secondary fermentation, imparting a subtle salmon tinge. Both the 60/40 blend and addition of the small amount of red wine create a charming wine of discreet finesse.

The Roederer Estate Rosé is full and round with smooth flavors and a fine, persistent mousse. The extra measure of Chardonnay contributes elegance and austerity that balance nicely with the delicate fruitiness of the Pinot Noir.

Ratings & Reviews

94 Points - Decanter Magazine:
"Lovely aromas of crunchy red apples, a burst of minerality followed by buttery brioche. Full-flavoured with a lively and creamy mousse, layers of red berry fruit, dried apricots, wild herbs, white truffle and sea spray on the long finish, which is tinged with crushed almonds. A 56% Pinot Noir blend and 44% Chardonnay with 8 g/L of residual sugar. Aged a minimum of two years on the lees. 11,000 cases of this run were produced." - JC (Mar 2023)

93 Points - James Suckling:
"Strawberry with hints of white peach and some bread dough. Perfumed. Hints of cotton candy. Medium body. Fine bubbles. Flavorful finish. Reserved at the end giving it focus. A blend of 56% pinot noir and 44% chardonnay. 2019 base. Three years on yeast. 8.5g/L dosage." (Nov 2023)

93 Points - Wine Enthusiast:
"This wine is pale-pink salmon-hued with aromas of yeasty brioche, fresh raspberry, youthful strawberry, white tea and spiced orange zest on the nose. The midpalate is firm mousse, dried raspberry, orange blossom, gliding into supple orange cream and white grapefruit with a dry finish. Pair with life." - Tonya Pitts (May 2024)

92 Points - Wine Spectator:
"Vivacious and generous, with sleekly layered strawberry and watermelon flavors that reveal hints of ginger and spices. Refreshing finish. Drink now." - TF (Jun 2023)
