The vintage
The fruit of a year as complex as it was unprecedented in Champagne, Louis Roederer's Cristal 2012 is undoubtedly in line with the house's finest vintages.
Despite low yields in 2012, the continental climatic conditions during the end of the season enabled the teams to obtain grapes that reached a rare level of maturity. These grapes resulted in rich and powerful wines that showcase the grandeur of their terroirs. 2012 also marked the beginning of a new chapter in the viticulture of Louis Roederer's exceptional vineyards. Cristal 2012, the first vintage of this new and precise type of viticulture, is the fruit of several years of experimentation, placing the vine at the heart of the development of each champagne.
Vinification and ageing
The vinification is carried out in oak for 32% of the wine. No malolactic fermentation. The dosage is 7.5 g/litre.
The blend
Cristal 2012 by Louis Roederer comprises a blend of 60% Pinot Noir and 40% Chardonnay.
