Cristal 2015
Louis Roederer | Prestige Cuvée | Vintage 2015
The Louis Roederer Cristal 2015 is a champagne that needs no grand introduction. Best served in the Josephinen No. 4 – a glass that gives the wine air and space. Not by chance, but by design.
Because the Cristal feels extensively mineral, deep, citrusy – with saline energy, fine spices and a silky length. Elegance, power and precision in perfect balance.
60% Pinot Noir, 40% Chardonnay. 2015 – a hot, dry vintage with taut structure. Served at about 50-52°F – not too cold, to show its depth. Partially aged in wood, no malolactic fermentation. Aging potential: decades.
Cristal is a champagne for very conscious enjoyment – not because this bottle tastes significantly better than many others, but because it shows Roederer's signature in its purest form.
