Critic Scores, Reviews & Descriptions

95 JS / 94 WE / 93+ WA / 93 VM / 93 WS / 17.5 JR

Very delicate style,overall, with softness and elegance. Yellow-citrus and yuzu fruit character. Very chalky palate with silky texture and a super pure fruit core. The full, vinous potential of the chardonnay here is stunning. Really ripe in a cool year means concentration. Very silky with paraffin-like texture. - James Suckling

Chardonnay from the Côte des Blancs forms the backbone of this still-young vintage. Crisp apple and ripe lemon flavors go together with a taut, nervy texture that has a steely edge. The wine needs to age, so drink from 2021. - Roger Voss, Wine Enthusiast 

The 2013 Brut Blanc de Blancs wafts from the glass with aromas of crisp yellow orchard fruit, warm biscuits, freshly baked bread and dried white flowers. Medium to full-bodied, it's the most tightly wound and introverted of these new vintages released from Roederer, and it really needs some time on cork to digest its dosage and develop additional complexity. Seamless and elegant, it's nicely balanced, with fine depth at the core: the only missing ingredient is time. William Kelley - The Wine Advocate

Roederer’s 2013 Blanc de Blancs is fabulous. A blend taken from the extreme north and south portions of Avize, the 2013 races out of the glass with stunning Chardonnay purity and finesse. Light on its feet, brilliant and full of energy, the 2013 is off the charts gorgeous. Lemon confit, mint and white flowers are some of the nuances that caress the palate. The Blanc de Blancs is bottled with 4 atmospheres of pressure (as opposed to the more common 5-6), which gives softer contours and an extra degree of suppleness. The Blanc de Blancs is one again the under the radar jewel in the Roederer range. Dosage is 8 grams per liter. 

Lemon curd and star fruit flavors provide a citrusy overtone to notes of apricot, biscuit and thyme in this well-knit, racy Champagne, which offers a lively bead and a subtle streak of salinity. Well-balanced and mouthwatering. Drink now through 2030. - Alison Napjus, Wine Spectator 

Great tension. Big, bold and concentrated. You can see these grapes got pretty ripe. Electric impact. - Jancis Robinson
