Roederer Estate is one of the most respected producers of premium sparkling wine in the United States. Located in the cool-climate region of Anderson Valley, the estate was founded by the prestigious Champagne house Louis Roederer with a clear goal: to craft world-class sparkling wines using traditional Champagne techniques while expressing the unique terroir of coastal California. Today, Roederer Estate stands as a benchmark for American méthode traditionnelle sparkling wine, blending French winemaking heritage with the distinctive character of Anderson Valley vineyards.
The origins of Roederer Estate date back to 1982, when the historic Champagne producer Louis Roederer sought a location outside France capable of producing sparkling wines of exceptional quality. After extensive research, the Roederer family selected Anderson Valley, a region known for its cool Pacific Ocean influence, foggy mornings, and long growing season—conditions remarkably similar to those found in Champagne. By establishing their own vineyards and winery rather than purchasing fruit from growers, Louis Roederer ensured full control over the quality and style of the wines produced in California.
