Like a brand new symphony, Cristal resonates with a different tone than previous vintages. This iconic cuvée of Louis Roederer Champagne was born in the vineyards of Domaine Cristal and beats to the rhythm of the seasons, the climate and the work done in the vineyards. Just like a fine Burgundy cru, this champagne finds nourishment in its soils, in their vibration and in their indissoluble bond with the sun and light. The 70 plots that make up Domaine Cristal are cultivated using organic and biodynamic practices that guarantee their permanence and constant evolution. These 70 exceptional lieux-dits have been constructed with care and patience by successive generations at the helm of the Louis Roederer Champagne House since 1845. They are crafted using a traditional, bespoke viticultural approach that respects the living environment, using eco-friendly practices . which include mass selection, gentle pruning, the use of biodynamic compost and keeping the land fallow for long periods. These methods are inspired by the principles of permaculture in which the ecosystem adjusts its balance, thus forming a close bond between Man and Nature. 30 hectares are also worked with horses, in particular the older vines and the younger ones which are the most fragile. These vineyards are located in 7 Grands Crus: 40% is planted with Chardonnay on the hills of Avize (10 plots), in Cramant (11 plots) and in Mesnil-sur-Oger (9 plots) and 60% is planted with Pinot Noir on hills of Ay (10 plots), in Verzenay (17 plots), Verzy (12 plots) and Beaumont-sur-Vesle (1 plot).
