We received exceptional hospitality during our visit yesterday. The wonderful ladies who hosted our tasting truly went above and beyond again and again. We had a few requests that didn’t really fall under their responsibility to meet, yet they took every opportunity to say yes when they could have easily said no. Just those few niceties took our experience from nice to amazing. Service like this only accentuates the fine sparkling wines produced here. We thank you so much for a delightful afternoon.

Beautiful grounds, can't wait to see the remodeled tasting room. L'ermitage is my favorite California sparkling wine. thanks for an enjoyable visit!

We booked the winery tour at 10:30am(it includes tasting as well) and it was an amazing experience! I'd highly recommend to do it to learn more about sparkling wine production and see the real working facility from inside. Really fascinating!
Dani did great job presenting Roederer, explaining various stages of the process and hosting the tasting afterward! Probably it was the most memorable experience during our 2-days Anderson Valley winery trip.

The wines are impeccable and the hospitality was top notch. The hospitality director has such an incredible depth of knowledge about Champagne and sparkling wine.

What a lovely place to visit! Joined the club we liked it so much.

Exceptional bubbles from the French master. Can’t wait for the new venue to open. Food pairings were healthy and so well balanced with the food.

One of my favorite wineries! We’re fortunate enough to live in California to be able to drive up to have tastings! I can’t wait to come for pickups! The magnum vintages are my favorites!

Roederer Estate is one of the three major sparkling wine producers (Scharffenberger and Domaine Anderson being the others) in the Anderson Valley that are owned by the champagne house, Maison Louis Roederer, the producer of Cristal among other things. In my opinion, they produce the best wines of the three, so we stopped by at 11 AM without a reservation for a mid-week tasting. We were the only ones for the hour or so that we were there. The tasting room is currently being renovated, so we sat outside on the patio that overlooked the vineyards. They offered two tastings:Classic Flight for $25Brut MVBrut MV from a magnumBrut Rosé MV2020 Clark Road Single VineyardExtra DryL’Ermitage Flight for $45Brut MVBrut Rosé from a magnum2017 L’Ermitage Brut2006 L’Ermitage Brut Late Disgorged2015 L’Ermitage Brut RoséThey requested that everyone in the party drink the same flight, so we went with the L’Ermitage Flight. It was more expensive, but it was worth it just to try the three wonderful L’Ermitage wines. To be fair, older vintage champagnes (2006) might not be everyone’s cup of tea, but it was fascinating to taste the effect of aging - think caramel and brioche notes as opposed to fresh fruits. It was getting close to lunch, so we also ordered the eggs mimosa and the lavender honey and goat cheese crostini. Both were delicious and paired very well with the wines.Afterwards, you have the opportunity to not only buy a wide range of library wines from the Roederer Estate, but also from Maison Louis Roederer including several older vintages of Cristal at pretty reasonable prices. We opted to go with the 2006 L’Ermitage LD Brut ($120) and the 2003 L’Ermitage Brut Rosé ($140) because I doubt that we will come across these wines anywhere else.If you enjoy sparkling wines, this might be an excellent stop as you make your way through the Anderson Valley. It will probably be even better when the new tasting room opens too.One last recommendation - go to the bathroom. Really. In order to get to the bathroom, you get to see the wine storage area, the fermentation barrels/tanks, etc. Pretty cool to see.

Gorgeous setting, terrific range of sparkling wines in the champagne style. No appointment needed for tastings, and they start at $20 per person for 5 pours. They have a selection of snacks.
Christine poured us great wines and answered all of our questions. We had a lovely time!

Had the opportunity to visit Roederer Estate recently and was impressed with the hospitality and depth of knowledge all staff members showed me. Impressive facility surrounded by vineyards, and of course, the wine speaks for itself. I highly recommend the L'Ermitage tasting flight to learn about how these wonderful wines age. Also - kid-friendly! It's nice to know the whole family is welcome to visit. Mahalo nui loa from Honolulu!

I can't tell you just how fabulous this place is. I thought I would buy a few bottles but ended up taking so many back home to Texas. Thank you for an amazing experience!

Visited on January 29. This was probably our fifth time at Roederer and though each time has been great, this visit was truly stellar.We had a tasting and some wonderful snacks. Big shout out to the divine deviled eggs (trout roe, meyer lemon, rosemary blossoms....doesn't get better) and smoked salmon plate (excellent fish and pairings).Mimi helped us during this visit and she alone should get 100 stars. We loved talking with her--her depth of knowledge of the area, recommendations, and her whole way just really made our day. Right now, there is some construction on the property which obstructs the usually stunning view, but it really didn't matter because Mimi and the rest of the staff were amazing--we spent more time chatting than admiring the view :) Roederer continues to be a favorite of ours and we'll keep recommending them and coming back. **Thank you, Mimi for a wonderful afternnoon!
