Louis Roederer, 21 volumes Lundy, 51100 Reims, FR

Cristal Millésimé 2015 by Louis Roederer is a luxurious champagne that impresses with its exclusivity and quality. The Louis Roederer winery is located in Reims, in the heart of the Champagne region. Founded in 1776, it remains one of the few family-run champagne houses

.

This champagne consists of 60% Pinot Noir and 40% Chardonnay, with the grapes coming from the best locations in Champagne. The special feature of this wine lies in the rigorous selection of grapes and the combination of organic and biodynamic cultivation. The Cristal 2015 shows a bright golden yellow color. The bouquet unfolds aromas of citrus fruits, white peaches and light brioche notes. On the palate, it is fresh and lively with aromas of ripe apples, lemon and a touch of minerality. The aftertaste is long and elegant

. The

chalky soils and the continental climate, which offer ideal conditions for growing the grapes, are typical of this wine and the Champagne wine-growing zone. The aging process takes at least six years on the lees, which gives champagne its fine perlage and complexity.

The 2015 vintage was characterized by ideal weather conditions, which resulted in excellent grape quality. It is interesting that Cristal was originally created for the Russian Tsar Alexander II and is now synonymous with luxury and elegance
