Louis Roederer Cristal 2012 Champagne, 75 cl

First created in 1876 for Alexander II of Russia, Cristal is viewed by many as the first Prestige Cuvee Champagne. With its extra ageing (minimum 7 years) and use of only the finest grapes from the region this is a Champagne of great character and tension. Great to drink now, but will most certainly keep for a good 10 years (in the right conditions!)
