Louis Roederer Cristal 1993
750ml
12%
Louis Roederer’s Cristal was the world’s first prestige cuvée Champagne and is still the most famous.
Cristal is usually predominantly Pinot Noir, but harvest rains resulted in a more Chardonnay (52%) based cuvée this year. Almost 20 years after the vintage, it’s drinking beautifully with an autolytic nose of butterscotch and caramel, a soft, creamy palate, and a long finish with notes of earth and mushroom.
