Lots of mineral and oyster-shell aromas with light toasted-bread and pie-crust undertones. Hints of caramel, apple and pear tart, too. Medium to full body with phenolic intensity and length. Intense at the finish, with driving acidity and length. Generous and expressive. Dosage 7g/L. Very drinkable now, but even better in 2025. no malolactic and a dosage of 7g per liter. From organically farmed grapes. Very complex, it strikes a natural balance and is very drinkable already, though will develop well for more than a decade in the cellar.

The 2014 Cristal is a terrific effort that transcends the vintage. Bursting from the glass with expressive aromas of ripe citrus fruit, nectarine, white flowers, freshly baked bread and subtle hints of honeycomb, it's medium to full-bodied, vinous and fleshy, with an exuberant core of fruit that's girdled by racy acids, resulting in a wine that's simultaneously chiseled and demonstrative, meaning that early appeal doesn't come at the expense of the requisite tension for long-term cellaring. Concluding with a long, aromatic and intensely chalky finish, it is a brilliant Champagne that will offer a broad drinking window. This bottle was disgorged in June 2021 with seven grams per liter dosage.

Louis Roederer
Louis Roederer, l’une des dernières grandes maisons de champagne indépendantes, fut fondée en 1776 et, fait rare dans la région, est restée dans le giron familial pendant plus de deux siècles. La propriété rémoise comporte plus de 215 hectares de vignobles classés grand cru, plantés des trois cépages traditionnels de la Champagne, à savoir le chardonnay, le pinot noir et le pinot meunier. Le domaine utilise un système parcellaire, technique qui garantit la préservation des caractéristiques propres à chaque cru jusqu’au moment de l’assemblage, permettant ainsi une véritable traçabilité. La célèbre cuvée Cristal a été créée en 1876 à la demande du tsar Alexandre II. Elle est devenue aujourd’hui un symbole de statut social mais aussi le champagne le plus savoureux, avec une grande constance. Outre cette cuvée, la plus prestigieuse au monde, la maison élabore un Brut Premier multi-millésime dont la qualité dépasse de loin les autres champagnes millésimés. En collaboration avec Philippe Starck, la famille a lancé en 2006 un Brut Nature. Cette cuvée spéciale est le fruit de pratiques culturales biodynamiques personnalisées qui se conjuguent pour donner naissance au style de champagne maison le plus anticonformiste.
