Louis Roederer Cristal Brut Champagne 2014 With Gift Box
98/100 Points, Wine Spectator
Cristal conjures images of celebration and memorable occasions. Have you been waiting for a reason to make Chardonnay lobster with rhubarb or oysters with a Champagne zabaglione? Here it is! Because this showstopper of a Champagne is so spectacular with egg dishes, it is the perfect accompaniment to caviar brunch, or just a big glistening bowl of caviar. Fill your glasses and get your Ooh La La on winelovers!
Wine Spectator: "This vivid Champagne shows up-front and linear definition, thanks to rapierlike acidity, with finely meshed flavors of ripe black cherry and mandarin orange fruit, raw almond, anise and cardamom spice as well as a touch of honeycomb, which all unfurl and expand on the fine, creamy palate. Sleek acidity continues through to the finish, with additional racy character provided by a streak of minerally saline and chalk, which gains momentum through the midpalate and rings out on the well-cut, lasting finish. Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Drink now through 2040. Jun 2022
