Louis Roederer Cristal 2015 Champagne, 75cL, Sparkling Wine, Organic and Biodynamic PrinciplesBy Winebuyers

1 x 75cl. The largest family-owned Champagne house, Louis Roederer, has a wealth of owned vineyards (nearly 250ha), two-thirds of which are Grand Cru. The house has adopted organic and biodynamic principles in its vineyards, with Chef de cave Jean-Baptiste Lecaillon introducing changes over twenty years. All wines from vintage level up are now made from estate fruit, and even the non-vintage wine exceeds 50% estate fruit. The aim is for full ripeness to ensure a clear expression of each vineyard before the blending process begins. Louis Roederer is now at the forefront of Champagne houses with a continual philosophy of further improvement, which shows in all wines from non-vintage to the prestige Cuvee Cristal.
