Critics Ratings

'Broad and slightly popcorn. Sweet start but enough freshness on the end. Quite clean enough. But richer than most Cristals. Just a little soft.' - Jancis Robinson MW, JancisRobinson.com 17/20 (Nov 2021)

'The iconic Roederer Champagne, Cristal's latest release, brings a perfect balance of richness and age worthiness. It is full of apple flavor, and the mousse is very fine and almost imperceptible. As so often with a beautifully blended wine like this, a few minutes breathing brings out extra complex flavors. It certainly should age over five years and more.' - Roger Voss, Wine Enthusiast, 97/100 (Dec 2012)

'Vibrant and mouthwatering, this offers a range of patisserie pear and apple fruit, candied lemon zest, pastry dough and marzipan notes set on a finely detailed texture, which imparts a great deal of finesse. The lasting finish echoes a smoky mineral note. Drink now through 2025.' - Alison Napjus, Wine Spectator, 94/100 (Nov 2012)
