Winemaker Notes
Concentrated and candied citrus fruit mingle delicately with notes of grain and lightly roasted almonds. Fruity palate with a silky texture, complemented by soft bubbles that are perfectly integrated and deliciously elegant. The purity and perfection of the ripe yellow fruit melt into the intense chalky freshness, typical of Cristal, that is both powdery and saline. Dense, juicy, concentrated and long on the mid-palate, thanks to the spicy and sappy structure resulting from partial ageing in large oak vats. The finish builds to a crescendo, revealing a rich grainy and velvety texture that is wrapped in a long, saline and superbly elegant finish.
About Winery
Louis Roederer is a prestigious French champagne house with a history spanning over two centuries, known for its independent, family-owned structure and commitment to quality. Founded in 1776 as Dubois Père & Fils and later renamed in 1833 by Louis Roederer, the house has been passed down through generations of the Roederer family (and now the Rouzaud family). A key aspect of the Roederer story is its dedication to estate vineyards, a practice that contrasts with some other Champagne houses who primarily source grapes from various plots. This dedication to quality and tradition has earned Louis Roederer a global reputation for its elegant and complex champagnes.
