One of the masterpieces of this exceptional vintage (the last that was this cool). Ravishing nose of Amalfi lemon and white peach with hints of white chocolate, chamomile and oyster shell. Super-elegant and tightly structured with a hint of creaminess on the mid-palate adding tension. Very long steely finish carried by the linear mineral acidity. A cuvée of 60% pinot noir and 40% chardonnay, part of which (unusually for Cristal) underwent malolactic fermentation. Getting very scarce on the secondary market, partly because of the great aging potential! Tasted at the Cristal vertical tasting at the champagne house on July 6th, 2023. Drink or hold.

Helles Grüngelb, Silberreflexe, feines, anhaltendes Mousseux. Frische weiße Pfirsichnote, helle Tropenfrucht, mineralisch, ungemein jugendlich und puristisch. Am Gaumen komplex, feine gelbe Tropenfruchtnuancen, ein Hauch von Pfirsich und Apfel, engmaschig, fester Körper sehr vitale, energische Säurestruktur, schwungvoll, zitronig unterlegter salziger Touch, verfügt über ein ungemein langes Finale, sicheres Reifepotenzial für viele Jahre, finessenreich wie nie zuvor.

This latest incarnation of the famous brand is a superb wine. It is on par with, maybe even better than, the already legendary 2002. Its balance is impeccable: Apple and citrus flavors working with the tight minerality to give a textured yet fruity wine. Produced from Roederer\'s own vineyards which are mainly biodynamic, the wine has its own intense purity and crispness. It has amazing potential and is likely to age for many years. Drink from 2020.

The balance here between all the crushed rocks, stones, ripe citrus, green apples, lemon peel, flowers, honey, brioche, and racy acidity is just perfect. The bubbles are elegant, long, and fresh, giving you the perfect level of effervescence and fruit. I have tasted this at least 6 times, and with the exception of one bottle, they have all been extraordinary. I do think the initial bottle I tasted, which I posted a note on previously might have been opened too soon after shipping because subsequent bottles have all been better.

The 2008 \'Cristal\' Champagne is an absolutely magical effort from cellar master Jean-Baptiste Lecaillon, who has crafted a simply dazzling wine from this sensational vintage. Composed of 60% Pinot Noir, 40% Chardonnay the 2008 was bottle-aged for 8 years before being left to rest for at least 8 months after disgorging. This beautiful Champagne begins with highly perfumed aromatics, offering a gorgeous combination of musty and earthy tones up front, followed by white truffle shavings, peat moss, brioche and bright pear nuances that complete the exotic nose. Streamlined throughout, this shows incredible precision and clarity, as well as an unmistakable a seamless quality that makes it nearly impossible to resist. It goes on to impress with its incredible verve and energy, as well as racy acidity, which is all underlined by a remarkable saline character that echos through the palate. This continues to deliver an outstanding combination of weight and effervescence as flavors of Asian pear, marzipan, Marcona almond and kumquat all come together to delight the senses. The 2008 is truly one of the most compelling releases that I’ve ever had the opportunity to taste from this house. Although it is already utterly scintillating in its youth, this will ultimately need some more time in bottle, nonetheless its pedigree and potential are extremely evident.

Composto de 60% Pinot Noir e 4 0% Chardonnay, com estágio de 20% do vinho base em carvalho, fermentação malolática de 20% do blend total e dosagem final de 8 g/l de açúcar. Nessa safra, permanece cerca de 10 anos em contato com as leveduras antes da degola. Apesar dos poucos anos de garrafa, já começa a mostrar notas de padaria, de frutos secos, de mel, de especiarias doces e de flores. Mas, é na boca que merece atenção, com sua acidez elétrica, seu ótimo volume de boca, sua textura firme e cremosa e seu final longo, muito longo, comparado ao das safras 2012 e 2002. Outras duas grandes edições de Cristal. Álcool 12%.

Sehr verschlossen nach Entkorken, braucht Belüftung; dann ausgesprochene Mineralität, später interessante Kräuternoten, Gewürze; glasklarer Ansatz, ungemein dichter Bau, buchstäblich von kristallener Frische, sehr langes Finale auf Noten grüner Zitrone und Stachelbeeren; stiltreuer Wein, der nur einen Fehler hat: er steckt noch in den Kinderschuhen! Wir können nur dazu raten, ihnen zwei drei Jahre reifen lassen - oder auch länger.Die Note für die aktuelle Form.
