Blend of 62% Pinot Noir and rest Chardonnay. Pale salmon with aromas of berry fruits, yeasty and nutty notes. On the palate flavors of fresh cherry and raspberry, nice firm mousse, rapid bubbles, adding citrus & toasty apple flavors, crisp & refreshing, long ending with creamy lemon, smoke & yeasty mineral notes. Nice! Aged well!

Had this a while ago, new batch, some lots underwent malolactic conversion enhancing flavor & weight. 40/40/20 blend, Pinot Meunier-20%. Founded in 1776, Reims France, rare family owned company, still managed by Roederer family. In 1833, Louis Roederer inherited company his uncle & renamed company under his namesake. Fresh fruit aromas, nice mousse, rapid bubbles, citrus & toasty apple flavors, crisp & refreshing, lingering ending with lemon, smoke & yeasty mineral notes. Nice value!

January Wednesday Wine Committees are always a great as the red wines are required to be 11yrs old, making all of the reds 2008 vintage. 1 sparkler, 2 whites, 4 reds and 1 dessert wine were served today, all blind.
This gained color as it sat in the glass. I’m still a little surprised it was a Rosé as there was very little pink color to it. I called it a West Coast sparkler (Blanc de Noir) with 5-7yrs of age on it. Bubbles were larger than other champagnes I’ve enjoyed. No yeast or limestone notes. Aged herbal nose to it that I really enjoyed. Rhubarb, pink lady apple, and some honeyed pear.
