Louis Roederer Cristal Brut 1982 1500ml

winespectator.com/Issue Sep 30, 1987
A simply delicious Champagne with lots of flavor and charm. It's very clean; crisp and full-bodied with toasty, yeasty, figgy aromas and a delicate creamy texture that shows off the spicy, tart cherry and gingery flavors.

Louis Roederer, a wonderful family-owned Champagne house founded in 1776, has a tremendous reputation for quality. Since 1979 it has been run by Jean-Claude Rouzaud. 80% of the firm's needs are supplied by their own, magnificent, 444 acres of vineyard holdings.
Louis Roederer's Pinot Noir based non-vintage Brut Premier is powerful and richly-honeyed and is far superior to most other producers' vintage Champagnes.
In 1876 Louis Roederer created the now famous Cristal, at the request of Alexander II. This once intensely sweet wine is now one of the most luscious, deeply flavoured champagnes available, with the '88, '89 and '90 among the greatest Cristals ever released.
