2000 Roederer Estate L'Ermitage

[VouvrayHead]

$40 I love the real stuff so much, I rarely get California bubbles (with the exception of Schramsberg BdN), but I got talked into this at my local store. Very good wine!
Definitely fruitier than any brut I've had with loads of orange on the palate. Nicely balanced, very elegant wine. Not as complex as much of the real good stuff, but very good for the money. Better than most of the big houses' NV, which keep creeping up in price.
Sorry, no notes taken so this is just a rough sketch with impressions!
