Champagne masterpiece with elegance, minerality & finesse.
Crafted only in the most exceptional harvests, Louis Roederer Cristal Champagne Brut 2015 is a symbol of French luxury and artisanal excellence. Aged for over six years in the cellars of Louis Roederer, this iconic cuvée is a meticulously balanced blend of 60% Pinot Noir and 40% Chardonnay, sourced exclusively from the finest Grand Cru vineyards of Champagne, including Aÿ, Avize, Cramant, and Mesnil-sur-Oger.
Tasting Profile
This radiant golden Champagne opens with complex aromas of citrus blossom, green pear, almond, and white peach, elegantly layered with notes of toasted brioche, crushed limestone, and fresh hazelnuts. On the palate, it delivers refined precision and tension, revealing flavors of lemon zest, golden apple, chalky minerality, and creamy lemon curd, supported by an ultra-fine mousse and lively, integrated acidity.
The 2015 vintage is marked by warmth and richness, yet it retains Cristal’s signature freshness and purity. The silky mouthfeel gives way to a lengthy, structured finish, making it a remarkable Champagne for both near-term enjoyment and long-term cellaring.
