About this product
Roederer Estate's prestige cuvée, made from the finest Anderson Valley Chardonnay with extended lees ageing. L'Ermitage delivers extraordinary complexity, with toasted brioche, white peach, and subtle oxidative depth that rivals Champagne at a fraction of the price.
Pairing intelligence

aperitif
complement
A classic luxury pairing: L'Ermitage's autolytic complexity and fine mousse provide the ideal textural contrast to caviar; crème fraîche bridges the wine's acidity and the roe's salinity.

amuse
complement
The wine's citrus and toasted brioche complement the sweet crabmeat; lemon aioli mirrors the wine's acidity while providing the richness that the wine's extended lees character can absorb.

starter
complement
The wine's oxidative depth and complex autolysis are a natural match for white truffle; Parmesan's umami and the risotto's creaminess support the wine's considerable weight.
