A Legacy Rooted in Passion

Founded in 1776, Champagne Louis Roederer has long been a symbol of elegance and devotion, crafting some of the most celebrated Champagnes in the world, including the iconic Cristal. Roederer's meticulous approach to winemaking—from lovingly tending their own vineyards to carefully handcrafting their wines—reflects a passion for excellence that has been passed down through generations

In the early 1980s, inspired by the untamed beauty of California’s Anderson Valley, the Roederer family embraced a bold new adventure. They established Roederer Estate, bringing their storied heritage across the ocean to a place brimming with promise. This was more than a business venture; it was an act of faith in the power of love—for winemaking, for tradition, and for the unique potential of this stunning region. 

California Terroir Meets French Desire 

The Anderson Valley, with its cool breezes and coastal charm, is an idyllic setting for cultivating Chardonnay and Pinot Noir—the essential grape varieties for traditional sparkling wines. Roederer Estate’s wines capture the valley’s romantic allure, delivering vibrant acidity, lush fruit flavors, and a sense of place that speaks to the heart.

Remaining true to their heritage, Roederer Estate employs the méthode traditionnelle, the same winemaking process used in Champagne. Their unwavering commitment to crafting wines with estate-grown grapes ensures every bottle is a genuine expression of their love for the land and the artistry of winemaking. Each sip is a journey into passion and dedication.

A Star for Romantic Moments
