Description

2008 Champagne Louis Roederer, Cristal Rosé, BrutThe 2008 Cristal Ros is unquestionably one of the greatest wines longtime Chef de Cave Jean Baptiste Lcaillon has made at Roederer. Bright saline and chalky notes run through a core of vibrant, red toned fruit. The 2008 is tightly wound and nervous, yet it also has more than enough depth to keep it from being overly austere. Today, it is once again magnificent. Unforgettable. 100 100, Antonio Galloni (November 2024)
