Consistent with my last rating. This has matured nicely. What a consistent surprise to taste these older Roederers and just really enjoy them as wine. The bubbles fade pretty quick, almost no mousse. The 25 year old color is reminiscent of brilliant yellow gold. Super. Like the most awesome stonefruit cocktail you could make up. Very little noticeable autolysis from yeast. Lithe and generous on the palate. Long finish.

From magnum it was fresh and herbal, peppermint, not unlike Taittinger '98 from magnum that I had recently. Fresh with good present acidity, peach and pesto develop with time. There was also fresh milk and clean caramel on the nose.

This bottle was a little less consistent from the last two but still fantastic after nearly 30 years old. Dangggggg.

Showing slight bit of age but a refreshing, sophisticated sparkler
