LOUIS CRISTAL 2002 CHAMPAGNE
Louis Roederer uses the Méthode champenoise for their Cristal 2002 Champagne production. The Cristal 2002 blend is composed of 55% Pinot noir and 45% Chardonnay (20% of which is matured in oak casks with weekly batonnage). No malolactic fermentation occurs. Cristal is produced from grapes grown in Louis Roederer Grand Cru vineyards.The 2002 Cristal is now entering its first plateau of maturity, which makes it a terrific Champagne for drinking now. Hints of apricot, brioche, lemon confit, honey, hazelnut, baked apple tart and spice give the 2002 striking layers of nuance.
