I always enjoy drinking this Champagne, although this one is very young. Dry on the palate with medium plus acidity and small bubbles. Showing citrus, yeast, bread, green apples, spices, minerals and white pepper. This 9 year old Champagne is crispy and refreshing, and feels much younger than its age. Easy to drink and good by itself. Well balanced with nice complexity. I really prefer it with a lot more age, but it is definitely delicious already. This 2013 was a great vintage in Champagne and it is showing it. Robert Parker 96 points. A blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Meunier and Pinot Noir. 12.5% alcohol by volume. 93 points. $350.

Pale gold with infinitesimally tiny pearl. Sweet Meyer lemon micro-layer in cream on brioche. Lemon madeleine, rose leaf, lemon pith, grapefruit essence, baby’s breath, vidalia, toasted challah; smoothest silky mousse. Bright and zesty lime thoroughly coats the mouth; lemon oils bubbling. Lemongrass depth, with starfruit and quince streaks. Palpable minerality and saline interplay. Races on forever. #roederer #cristal #roederercristal #louisroederer #louisroederercristal #vintagechampagne #champagne #2013champagne #champagnecristal #reims #bubbles #bringthepagne
