One of CA’s Finest Sparkling Wines by Cristal Producer

Roederer Estate is rooted in viticulture and centered around ownership of their vineyards. In France, their top Champagne is Cristal, but in California, their flagship Sparkling Wine is their L’Ermitage, which is only made in exceptional vintages.

Relying on age-old traditions, they’ve established a reputation as the top domestic Sparkling wine, and with its 97 and 96 point scores, here’s your chance to add some to your wine collection.

Roederer’s winemaking style moves beyond science and chemistry into artistry measured by taste.

Their winemaking team, headed by Arnaud Weyrich, ages L’Ermitage for an impressive five years in oak casks, lending body, finesse, and depth, setting it apart from other California Sparkling wines.

From James Suckling: “This is a powerful and dense sparkling wine that is first and foremost a classic-quality wine. And then you think about the bubbles. Full-bodied with lots of brioche, pie crust and bread dough. Great finish. Five years on the lees. 52% chardonnay and 48% pinot noir. Drink now.”
97 Points

From Wine Enthusiast: “This grand, special-occasion wine is wonderfully complex and layered, but also powerful in the way its toasted walnut, Bosc pear and fresh bread flavors start out strong in the aroma and keep pumping on the palate and through a lingering finish. Nice and dry, tangy but mouthfilling, it’s a sophisticated indulgence. Best now to 2028.”
