LOUIS ROEDERER Cristal, 2015
A remarkably balanced and refined champagne with inimitable length. It has a silky texture and fruity aromas, complemented by a powerful mineral quality with white fruit and citrus notes.
The 2015 Cristal Brut is a remarkable champagne known for its harmonious blend of softness and intensity. It exudes maturity and energy, showcasing a unique combination of yellow and red fruit notes from Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grapes.
The wine's structure offers a vibrant, silky texture with flavors of candied citrus and spices. Its chalky character contributes to a fresh, effervescent finish, accented by subtle oaky and saline hints.
Cristal 2015 represents a perfect balance and longevity, highlighting the terroir's influence rather than the vintage's characteristics. It's a blend of 60% Pinot Noir and 40% Chardonnay, a truly timeless champagne with enormous ageing potential.

97 points - James Suckling: “For the warm and dry vintage this has tremendous freshness and elegance. The complex nose of citrus blossom, mint, lemon and lime zest opens up slowly as this aerates in the glass. The wine’s ample structure is still quite firm, which is a vintage characteristic, the mousse very fine but also very lively for an eight-year-old champagne. Cristal fans will love this as it is, but a year or two more in the bottle will do a lot for the very long mineral finish of this youthful masterpiece. A cuvee of 60% pinot noir and 40% chardonnay, picked from all 45 Cristal vineyard plots. Tasted at the Cristal vertical tasting at the champagne house on July 6th, 2023.”
