LOUIS ROEDERER CHAMPAGNE CRISTAL BRUT 2000 (OC X 3)

Champagne.

From a difficult vintage with destructive hailstorms and botrytis, the 2000 Cristal opens with an elegant and delicate bouquet with brioche, ripe apple, green olive and iodine aromas. Complex and very salty, with oyster and umami flavors, this is a generous and very long Cristal that is excellent with Japanese food, such as sashimi for example, as chef de cave Jean-Baptiste Lécaillon said during the tasting in New York in November 2018. Drink: 2018-2040 WA 95

3 bts.    per lot $800 - $1,000

Realised: $1,440
Price Includes Buyer's Premium ?
