LES BULLES. The Tsar's Wine. Maison Roederer's most famous wine was created in 1876 to satisfy the exacting tastes of Tsar Alexander II. The emperor asked Louis Roederer to reserve for him each year the best cuvée from the House, which he particularly appreciated. To accentuate its uniqueness, this exceptional champagne was packaged in a flat-bottomed crystal bottle. From then on, it will bear the name of this precious material, exalting its transparency and light. Produced only in "great years", when the maturity of the Chardonnay (around 40%) and Pinot Noir (around 60%) of which it is composed is perfect, Cristal ages 6 years in the cellar and rests 8 months after disgorging.
Appearance
Shimmering color with slightly amber highlights, indicative of a year of excellent ripeness.
Aroma
Rich bouquet of candied fruit (lemon, orange), white flowers (lily) and lightly toasted dried fruit (hazelnut, almond).
Wine Floral | Fruity | Mineral
Taste
Remarkable for its balance, a pure champagne with unrivalled length on the palate. Silky texture, fruit aromas supported by a mineral power from which white fruit and citrus notes take flight.
