It was first created in 1876 for Alexander II tsar of Russia, who was particularly an admirer of Louis Roederer’s Champagnes and requested the house’s best cuvee every year. As the society in Russia was unstable in 1800s, Cristal came in a unique flat-bottomed, transparent lead-crystal bottle to ensure no bombs were placed in the bottles! Louis Roederer owns 214 hectares of vineyards in Champagne, allowing them to select the best grapes from the best vintages. Cristal is fresh and floral when young but has...

Depending on the growing conditions in each year, the cellar master will slightly change his secret...
