Louis Roederer Cristal Millesime Brut Champagne, France 2008 路易王妃水晶極乾型香檳 2008

 Nose

A perfect marriage between balance and complexity, Cristal 2008 reveals an intense bouquet in which candied citrus fruit aromas give way to gourmet notes of pear and almond, enhanced by delicate toasted aromas.

Palate

Immense and powerful, the attack translates the powerful expression of the chalky terroir which gives this champagne a deep and concentrated feel and testifies to the limestone’s influence. The feel displays this inimitable and full sensation, embracing the palate with a soft feel and liqueur-like flavours. The palate is taut with a brilliant acidity and stretches out superbly to a pure and fresh finish, leaving a deliciously saline and lingering sensation. With this Champagne Cristal 2008, Louis Roederer has produced one of the house's greatest masterpieces that follows in the footsteps of the excellent 2002 vintage.
