The 2022 Clark Road Vineyard impresses with its density and presence, offering pear, green apple, jasmine, mint, dried flowers and chalk. A touch of bâtonnage has amplified its volume and textural resonance. Pinot Noir drives the blend, which very much comes through in the 2022's power and overall feel. Soft, plush curves wrap it all together. Dosage is 8 grams per liter. Disgorged 10/31/2025.

The 2020 Brut L'Ermitage Rosé is much softer than the Blanc, most likely because of the addition of still red wine to the blend. Bright red cherry fruit, chalk, rose petal and chocolate start to open with a bit of air. There's some tension and grip in the contours that are going to require time to soften. I imagine that ripening was not ideal given the circumstances of the year. Dosage is 6.5 grams per liter. Disgorged 10/15/2025.

The MV Brut Rosé is a total delight. Pale in color, the Brut Rosé is all grace. Cranberry, crushed flowers, mint, white pepper and chalk are all beautifully delineated. This opens nicely with a bit of time in the glass. Dosage is 8 grams per liter. Disgorged 04/01/2025.

The MV Brut is a fabulous introduction to the Roederer Estate range. Orchard fruit, mint, white flowers, ginger and tangerine peel all grace this exquisite entry-level offering from Roederer Estate. Brisk acids lift the effortless finish. This is an especially fine edition of the Brut. This release is based on the 2021 vintage with 12% reserve wines. Dosage is 8 grams per liter. Disgorged 07/14/2024.

Chalky, creamy and fresh, with minerals, fresh pears and wildflowers on the nose. Wonderful richness on the palate, with vibrant, mineral-driven acidity. Dense bubbles and a long finish of delicate herbs, wild honey, lime zest and salt. A mouthwatering, nuanced, medium-body wine. Disgorged March 2025. 5 g/L dosage. Drink or hold.
