2005, for me, is an unappreciated vintage, given the press 2007, 2010, 2012, 2013 get. Wonderful example of a middle aged Napa cabernet. Incredible value at $30. — 10 years ago

Delicious Pinot with a nice light lingering jam taste that's easy to to drink and is classic Willamette Valley. Kate and I will definitely be getting more of this — 8 years ago

Inky purple with brilliant tint. Youthful and compact rim.

Quite a contrast from the softer 2014, this shows a Cabernet-based character with dark cherry, blackcurrant, boysenberry, and leafy freshness on the bouquet.

The palate is certainly more interesting, a step up from the 2014. Red cherry, raspberry, red currant lifted by slightly minty freshness and baking spices while smoky hazelnut keeps it interesting.

Very commendable effort but I really wish they dialed down on Merlot in the final blend. 89+ — 9 years ago

Very nice. First time having this grape, which apparently comes from a small part of Piedmont on the Lombardy border. Almost like a dry intense Riesling - petrol and acid - but a bit more floral. Would want more. — 9 years ago

Great drinking Bordeaux! Drained very quickly, complex and so fresh almost black in color showing much younger than its 52 years. Sweet black fruits, earth, black pepper, dried herbs and mint. — 10 years ago

Tasted at Chateau.
52 CF 47 M 1 CS, 100% new oak for 15 m's.

Dark, inky crimson, opaque, compact rim.

Classic Cheval Blanc bouquet. Seductively floral - rose petal, lavender, violet. Elegant red fruit profile with fresh mintiness in abundance.

While evidently young and thus structured, this wine is extremely nuanced and soft (in a good way). Sophisticated and complex black and red fruits highlighted by fresh herbal undertone (mint, sweet basil, and thyme). Incredible finish - long and uniquely memorable.

No doubt, it will be spectacular in 10-15 years and beyond. My first young Cheval is exactly everything I was hoping for and more. 94++ — 9 years ago

Founded in 1982, Roederer Estate sparkling wines reflect the cool, fog-shrouded Anderson Valley, home to their family-owned estate's 600 acres of vineyards. Tiny bubbles, nice mousse with toasty fruit aromas for this blend of 52% Chardonnay & 48% Pinot Noir. Flavors of apple and nutty pear, biscuit notes, creamy, great mouthfeel. Lingering finish ending with spicy mineral notes. Smooth and crisp! — 9 years ago
