Champagne Louis Roederer Cristal 2004 Jéroboam 3L

In 1876, Tsar Alexander II, who was already a great fan of Louis Roederer cuvées, asked Louis Roederer to “take the exercise even further” and create a cuvée for his personal use that would be unique in terms of its bottle and quality. Louis Roederer offered to create an exceptional white crystal bottle in which he would blend the best selection of vines from 7 of his estate’s grands crus. This cuvée, only made in the “great” years when the maturity of the Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grapes allows a subtle, precise balance to be achieved, is the first prestige cuvée in Champagne.
