  COMMENTARY: I have always been a fan of the 2007 L'Ermitage by Roederer Estate and enjoyed many times prior to this most recent look at it. Today the wine performed even better than its excellent self and was simply out-of-this-world. TASTING NOTES: This wine exhibits tremendous complexity with its minerality and aged tertiary characteristics. The wine bright apple and yeasty aromas and flavors should pair it well with shellfish in a cream sauce. (Tasted: April 4, 2018, San Francisco, CA)

  Very fruity and fresh in aroma, this elegant wine has light, crisp apple and lemon flavors, fresh-baked bread accents and lively acidity. A layered texture seems to blend in accents of almond and vanilla, increasing complexity with each sip. It's one of California's blue-chip bubblies.

  Impeccably refined and elegant, with floral aromas of fresh bri- oche, baked apple and roasted hazelnut. The flavors are layered and well-focused, showing notes of mineral, fresh ginger and subtle raspberry.

  From a dry but cool year in Anderson Valley, this has a broad, ample core of fruit that suggests Golden Delicious apples and wildflowers. It’s round but not sweet, with a sumptuous texture and toasty length.
