  Blood orange, lemon peel, limestone on the nose. Medium + intensity of aromas. The palate adds ripe strawberries, cream ripe yellow peach, sesame seed, and fresh nuts. Texturally smooth and rounded. Well balanced with a high intensity of flavors. nice finish that lasts about 25 seconds.
  
  Medium body with great zippy medium + acid. Intense mousse that lingers. Really delicious, especially for "big house" Champagne. Developing. Will continue to improve in the bottle for 3-5 more years.

  Pale pink salmon in color & a steady mousse. Full, forward & attractive nose of ripe fruit aromas of strawberries, raspberries & citrus notes with lovely floral & yeasty notes, stony & minerals undertones in the background. Medium light bodied with a good concentration of well balanced & smooth textured, zesty, ripe fruit flavors of sweet strawberries, raspberries and citrus with some yeastiness, spices & minerals. Lingering crisp finish. Drinks quite well at present but it may develop further with additional aging at which time it may merit a higher score (93+).

  Light salmon in color, the 2016 iteration of Roederer's Vintage Brut Rosé (a blend of 62% Pinot Noir and 38% Chardonnay) is aromatically effusive of red currants, tangerines, clementines, cardamom and brioche. Medium-bodied and with a brisk tiny bead, it delivers comparable flavors, adding a small dollop of wood and notes of saline. Energetic and dense in the middle, it moves on to a lengthy, mineral-laden finish. Enjoy this delicious pink sparkler on any occasion throughout the remainder of this decade. Drink now-2030.
