With a history spanning over two centuries, Cristal is the pinnacle of Louis Roederer’s production and is only made in the finest vintages. First commissioned by Tsar Alexander II to create a special personal cuvée, Cristal was reintroduced by the House in 1924 as the first prestige cuvée champagne. The 2004 vintage is showing beautiful notes of brown sugar, crème brûlée, hazelnut and citrus fruit. Very persistent flavours, complemented by fresh acidity and very delicate mousse.
