In 1876 Tsar Alexander II asked that his personal Champagne be presented in crystal bottles, thus giving rise to the very first prestige Cuvee. Cristal is made from the finest wines pressed from the highest quality grapes, grown to the most superior Louis Roederer vineyards. Today it is still produced in limited quantities, always as a vintage wine and only in exceptional years. Rich and vinous, the elite Roederer style is characterised by finesse and elegance, Cristal exudes an enticingly delicate bouquet and perfect balance of fruit.
A super rich blend of the highest quality Champagne grapes 55% Pinot Noir and 45% Chardonnay. Aged for five years in its own bottle on the initial sediment lees before disgorgement. It then enjoys a doseage of 11-12g/L liqueur, whereupon it is resealed under it's final cork and aged for a further six months.
TASTING NOTES
A lustrous amber yellow colour with an effervescence that is vibrant and smooth, and borders on cream. An exuberant bouquet revealing aromas of ripe fruits lightly steeped in alcohol (blackcurrant, cherries in eau-de-vie), together with toasty and wooded notes. A disarmingly refined wine with a bead like a parfait, a well bodied palate and a long powerful finish.

About Louis Roederer Winery
Louis Roederer is one of the largest remaining independent Champagne Houses, owned by the same family since it was founded in 1776
In the period 1832 to 1870, under the direction of Louis Roederer, the house gained top ranking worldwide with sales of 2,500,000 bottles, including 390,000 in the United States and 660,000 in Russia where Louis Roederer champagne was an outstanding success. In 1876, Louis Roederer II who had succeeded his father created the Cristal CuvĂ©e for Tsar Alexander II. Louis Roederer identified Russia as his special priority, and sales there quickly grew to as much as 60 per cent of total shipments. Louis Roederer»
