Cristal Brut Champagne Chardonnay Pinot Noir Blend 2009

Fantastic, pinnacle #champagne - incredibly fresh nose, lots of energy with lemon, pear on the nose, touch of brioche plus wet stone. Fine bubbles, definitely felt like this was still too young and would have developed additional complexity given another decade. #cristal — a year ago

Cristal Brut Champagne Chardonnay Pinot Noir Blend 2013

Pale gold with infinitesimally tiny pearl. Sweet Meyer lemon micro-layer in cream on brioche. Lemon madeleine, rose leaf, lemon pith, grapefruit essence, baby’s breath, vidalia, toasted challah; smoothest silky mousse. Bright and zesty lime thoroughly coats the mouth; lemon oils bubbling. Lemongrass depth, with starfruit and quince streaks. Palpable minerality and saline interplay. Races on forever.
