James Suckling: 96 Points

A great 2015 vintage champagne! Super-elegant synthesis of pinot noir and chardonnay character with a dazzling interplay of complex red apple, citrus and delicate floral aromas with racy acidity and chalky minerality, that is animating for mind and body. Unusually graceful finish for the vintage. 70% pinot noir from Verzy, the highest point of the Montagne de Reims, that’s also very close to the forest. 30% chardonnay from Chouilly, another rather cool location.

Wine and Spirits Magazine: 96 Points

In the heat and ripeness of 2015, Jean-Baptiste Lécaillon balanced the concentration of chardonnay from Chouilly with the freshness of pinot noir from the northeast-facing slopes of Verzy. He managed that pinot noir from cold soils and a cool climate by allowing a portion of the lot to undergo malolactic conversion, something he hadn't done in the past. (He has increased this focus in subsequent vintages, reporting that Roederer's 2019 Vintage is 100 percent pinot noir from Verzy, as are 2020 and 2022.) The wine has Roederer's hallmark clarity and grace— fresh, fragrant, compelling in its texture that's all about chalk, heady in its savory richness, seeming to invest its inherent energy in the knitting of all its elements into one dynamic moment of grace.

Wine Enthusiast: 94 Points

This is a delicious Champagne with its ripe white fruits and softened texture. It is totally mature, the wine balanced and ready.

Wine Spectator: 94 Points

A bright, chalky Champagne, finely balanced and appealing, with a range of nectarine and strawberry fruit flavors, plus notes of almond biscotti, pink grapefruit pith and elderflower. Packs a vivacious mousse that dances a foxtrot on the palate, carrying the flavors on the racy, lingering finish. Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Drink now through 2030.
