Louis Roederer - Brut Champagne Cristal 2014 is produced in a traditional sparkling wine region, where grapes are hand harvested at optimal ripeness to preserve freshness. Base wines are fermented at cool temperatures in stainless steel before blending.

Secondary fermentation takes place either by the classic méthode traditionnelle in bottle or the Charmat method in pressurized tanks, depending on style. Lees aging is carefully monitored to develop texture, while disgorgement and dosage decisions are made to maintain balance.

The producer emphasizes clarity, precision, and respect for tradition, ensuring a sparkling wine built on craftsmanship rather than shortcuts.

Louis Roederer

Louis Roederer is a prestigious Champagne house with a long and storied history, founded in 1776 in Reims, France. It is one of the few remaining major Champagne houses to still be family-owned and independently run. The brand's identity is defined by a deep commitment to its vineyards and a philosophy of meticulous quality control from grape to bottle.

The brand's founder, Louis Roederer, established a tradition of acquiring his own vineyards to have full control over the quality of the grapes, a rarity at the time. This vineyard-centric approach remains a cornerstone of the brand's philosophy today, allowing it to produce wines that are a pure expression of their terroir.

Louis Roederer is particularly famous for its iconic Cristal Champagne, which was created in 1876 for Tsar Alexander II of Russia. The brand is also known for its non-vintage Brut Premier, which is a blend of wines from multiple vintages and reserve wines from the house's own reserves. The wines are celebrated for their elegance, complexity, and a consistent style that blends freshness and a rich, creamy texture.
