Produced from the first vineyard acquired by Roederer in 1841, this Champagne shows the beginnings of maturity as well as ripe, fresh apple fruit flavors. An aroma of toast mingled with kiwi fruits gives a finely balanced wine now ready to drink.

Vineyards in Cumières, facing the Marne Valley, are the source of this ripe, full and balanced Champagne. The fruit of one year, with an aroma of roses and a rich, vibrant palate, the wine is opulent and full. Drink now.

This is the 245th blend of Roederer's non-vintage Champagne. It is a fine wine, highlighting the blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, bringing in reserve wines to give richness and balance. It is fresh, beginning to show signs of maturity, with an apple aroma and a ripe palate. Drink now.

The new release of Scharffenberger’s non-vintage Brut Rosé is crafted from a cépages of fifty-five percent chardonnay and forty-five percent pinot noir, with five percent of the pinot being still red wine to produce the cuvée’s delicate salmon color. The wine’s nose is bright and complex, wafting from the glass in a mix of strawberries, quince, rye bread, a lovely base of soil, dried flowers and a lovely, delicate savory topnote. On the palate the wine is crisp, full-bodied, focused and well-balanced, with frothy mousse, a good spine of acidity and fine balance on the long and complex finish. Good juice. 2025-2040.
