Louis Roederer, Cristal
Louis Roederer, Cristal

Description

Levels IN, excellent appearance.

Disgorged in 2020, dosage 8 g/l. 60% Pinot Noir and 40% Chardonnay, 32% of the cuvée is fermented in oak. Six and a half years spent on lees. Very challenging in the vineyard. A very late year, spring arrived especially late. Lots of sunshine but a very high acid level, emphasised by Louis Roederer’s non-malo policy. The oak proportion in this wine is relatively high because Jean-Baptiste Lécaillon is aiming for a dry finish which helps ‘stretch the impact of the wine on the palate’. Biodynamic fruit means the fruit can take more oak because it’s so concentrated. Jean-Baptiste Lécaillon loves this wine, calling it ‘the essence of Cristal’.

Very fresh. Very tight on the nose. Extremely youthful and tense. Needs to unfurl. Tight and dry on the end. Long but embryonic. Lots of citrus elements. Elegant. Jancis Robinson (November 2021) JancisRobinson.com

 

This lot forms part of a private family collection with an enthusiasm for every corner of the wine-making world. Purchased through various reputable auction houses and UK wine merchants, the wine was stored in a meticulously organised country house cellar prior to removal for this sale. Now lying at LCB Vinotheque.
