Wine Review: This dark coral colored Sparkling Wine from Roederer Estate opens with lots of random tiny sized bubbles. The bouquet features raspberry and bread dough with hints of orange rind and walnut. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied with integrated medium acidity. The mouthfeel is nicely balanced, smooth, and fresh. The flavor profile is a tasty brioche, stony minerality and green apple blend with notes of strawberry and white pepper. The finish is dry and its acidity and flavors drift away nicely. This Sparkler would pair well with baked scallops. Enjoy – Ken

Winemaker Notes: Fine tiny bubbles and a long-lasting mousse are the usual footprints of the L'Ermitage cuvée. Pale salmon color. Mineral and light berry aromatic notes. Flavors of red apple tart with bright acid wrapped in yeast autolysis creaminess. Pinot width and structure, but light on its feet. Salivating finish.
