Louis Roederer Cristal 2002 Methuselah, 6L

Cristal is produced only from the truly great vintages in which the ripeness of the Pinot Noir and Chardonnay grapes can provide the subtle and precise balance that is now the distinction of this cuvée. The 2002 vintage shaped up magnificently over the spring, with no significant frost and near-perfect flowering. Then followed a summer marked by long, sunny periods interspersed with regular cloudy and rainy spells. The vines were in good health and the dehydration of the grape berries helped them reach new heights of ripeness.

This is a rare release of the highest quality vintage champagne which is truly a drink to savour. This 6L Methuselah bottle does not come with gift box.

Tasting Notes:

Serve between 12°C – 14°C

Generous and lush, revealing the perfect balance between concentration and finesse, freshness and vinosity, intensity and refinement. A delicate nose revealing a clean and well-blended mixture of flavours of honey, cocoa, lightly toasted hazelnuts and candied citrus fruit. 

 Pairing Notes:

Pairs well with caviar, fish and shellfish such as scallops, lobster and crayfish.
