The Cristal 2016 by Louis Roederer, from Grand Cru terroirs (Avize, Cramant), blends Pinot Noir (58%) and Chardonnay (42%). Aged 6.5 years on lees, it reveals aromas of white flowers. The palate, silky and mineral, captivates with its saline finish. Ideal with lobster, through 2035.
Louis Roederer
A family-owned house founded in 1776, Louis Roederer embodies Champagne excellence through its independence and its deep roots in the exceptional terroirs of the Montagne de Reims and the Côte des Blancs.
- Terroir : Grand Cru classified vineyards – chalky and calcareous soils of Verzenay, Avize and Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, conferring minerality and tension to the grapes.
- Vinification : Meticulous blending, partial aging in oak barrels and long lees maturation for aromatic complexity and a silky texture.
Tasting notes for Louis Roederer Cristal 2016
To the eye – Pale golden robe with green reflections, of crystalline clarity, with a fine and persistent effervescence, like a veil of silk.
On the nose – Aromas of white flowers (hawthorn, jasmine), followed by candied citrus (lemon and orange zest), ripe yellow fruits (peach, apricot) and a touch of fresh almond, all lifted by a chalky minerality and a saline hint.
On the palate – Silky, almost creamy attack, carried by a lively and precise acidity; the mineral tension stretches into a long, saline finish of taut elegance, leaving an impression of purity and depth.
Serve between 8 and 10°C in a tall flute or a tulip Champagne glass to preserve the finesse of the bubbles.
Vintage 2016
A vintage marked by climatic contrasts, where the freshness and minerality of the wines express themselves with rare precision, while retaining a remarkable fruit maturity.
- Aging potential : To be enjoyed now or cellared until 2035+, in a cool cellar (12–14°C) away from light.
