Current Vintage: 2016
Grapes: 58% Pinot Noir, 42% Chardonnay
Created in 1876 for Tsar Alexander II, Cristal was the world’s first Cuvée de Prestige. Crafted from Grands Crus from the Montagne de Reims, the Vallée de la Marne and the Côte des Blancs, and the result of a unique savoir-faire and devotion, this rare champagne is the jewel in the Louis Roederer crown.
Cristal 2016 is quite simply phenomenal! Coming from a cool, late vintage, it reveals a rare, magical balance between intensity of the pure aromas, energetic vibration, juicy palate and saline, chalky finish. Very close to having the “ideal” balance, the wine is crisp, saline and iodised, with a long, chalky, crystalline finish that lingers and builds to a crescendo. The overall impression is one of refinement, sapidity and purity.
