Critics Ratings

Le Mesnil Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru Brut 2004:
CellarTracker.com - 91/100

Louis Roederer Brut 2004:
‘Deep straw. Creamy pastry notes: eclairs! Quite tight at the moment with lemon-posset notes underneath. A little sweet on the end. Not the most refreshing, but hedonistic. A hint of something floral.’ - Jancis Robinson, JancisRobinson.com, 17.5/20 (Nov 2023)

'A great celebration of the fine 2004 vintage, this wine reveals both generosity and a steely resolve. It has a cool elegance as well, giving it a sense of refinement, while still preserving the Roederer richness. The tight acidity holds the wine together and promises long aging.' - Roger Voss, Wine Enthusiast, 95/100 (Dec 2010)

'Crisp and green, in a grassy, verdant way. Shows plenty of lime, orange peel and apple notes, with a touch of fresh-cut grass or chive. Balanced and elegant, with subtle length.' - Bruce Sanderson, Wine Spectator
