Score 93/100 · Drink 2017-2030, William Kelley, Wine Advocate, Aug 2022
From a cold and humid vintage that favored Chardonnay, Roederer's 1997 Brut Vintage unwinds in the glass with aromas of waxy citrus rind, honeycomb, stone fruits, bee pollen, confit mandarin and brioche. Medium to full-bodied, taut and incisive, with a racy spine and a long, chalky finish, it's immaculately preserved today, combining exotic aromatics with chiseled structure to compelling effect.
