Louis Roederer Cristal 2012 med 2 glas

Louis Roederer Cristal 2012 is one of Champagne’s most celebrated prestige cuvées, presented here with two glasses for an especially elegant tasting experience. Crafted from Chardonnay and Pinot Noir from the house’s finest Grand Cru vineyards, and produced with biodynamic farming, it reflects both refinement and precision. The 2012 vintage is regarded as one of Cristal’s finest of the past two decades, combining ripe generosity with remarkable tension and poise.

Makuprofiili
Cristal 2012 pours a brilliant golden color with amber reflections, lifted by a stream of small, fine, persistent bubbles. The bouquet is subtle yet deeply expressive, offering notes of preserved citrus, apricot, and honeysuckle, with a polished, mineral freshness beneath. On the palate, it is both crisp and rounded, opening with flavors of vanilla and mint before evolving toward licorice and toasted hazelnut. The wine finishes with great elegance and a beautiful sense of balance between lightness, depth, and complexity. While already impressive now, it has excellent aging potential and should continue to develop gracefully for many years.

Viininvalmistus
Cristal 2012 is made from Pinot Noir and Chardonnay sourced from 8 to 10 of Louis Roederer’s top Cru vineyards in Champagne, all farmed biodynamically and certified by Demeter. The 2012 growing season brought a cold winter followed by abundant sunshine, creating ideal conditions for healthy vines and perfectly ripe fruit. Around 15% of the wine was fermented in oak barrels, and malolactic fermentation was not carried out, helping preserve freshness and structure. The wine then underwent secondary fermentation in bottle for six years, with a dosage of 7.5 g/l, and was aged a further eight months after disgorgement before release.

Ruoka & tarjoilu
Cristal 2012 pairs beautifully with refined dishes such as lobster, scallops, caviar, sashimi, turbot, or delicately prepared poultry with cream or truffle accents. Serve chilled at around 8–10°C to best express its finesse and complexity. Decanting is not usually necessary, but allowing the wine a little time in the glass can help reveal its layered aromas.
