Champagne Roederer Cristal 2012er Prestige - Cuvee, brut, 12% vol., Magnum

In 1876, the House of Louis Roederer first delivered champagne to the Tsar in these distinctive bottles made of clear crystal glass with a flat bottom (the tradition-conscious House of Roederer still delivers its famous Cristal champagnes in clear bottles without the indentation at the bottom). In any case, a champagne bottle made of robust crystal glass doesn`t require the typical indentation of a conventional champagne bottle, which serves to strengthen the bottle and is necessary for stacking sur pointes (on its ends). Even today, Cristal remains the champagne of emperors, kings, and all connoisseurs who appreciate the finer things in life. 96/100 Parker points, 99 Falstaff points
