Lot #329. Louis Roederer Cristal Brut 1996

Description: Consists of 1 Bottle, 0.75L
Region: France, Champagne.
Score: 100 FM.
"Light greenish-yellow, with a golden shimmer and a very lively, fine mousse. Alluring bouquet with nuances of honeydew melon, white tropical fruit, a floral touch reminiscent of Scotch broom, fresh pear, and minerality: a multi-faceted bouquet. Composed, elegant, and ripe peach/pineapple nuances, with an elegant structure; saline, delicate nuances of roasted nuts and a subtle touch of honey on the finish. Seems immensely youthful, with still further potential for aging; a perfect, distinguished Cristal from top to toe." Falstaff Magazin, Fallstaff.at, Mar 2020
Lot Location: Orange County
Estimate: $325
