"52% Chardonnay, 48% Pinot Noir, 4% aged reserve wine (vintage '99)
Fine tiny bubbles and a long lasting mousse are the usual footprints of the L'ERMITAGE cuvée. This cuvée is showing great notes of "tarte tatin": baked apples and buttery crust, with notes of apricot and delicate vanilla bean. The mouthfeel is creamy, expresses flavors of quince and bread crust, with a clean and crisp yet long finish."
This elegant version shows beautiful texture and a sense of finesse despite the underlying power of vibrant acidity and smoky minerality. Drink now through 2028.—A.N.
Although it is still young, this vintage of Cristal promises great things. There s an impressive balance between ripe fruit and crisp acidity, rich and food friendly, but also a fine aperitif. Apricot and grapefruit flavors are round and rich, but with considerable minerality as well. This is a beautiful wine that can improve with age, at least through 2030. - Cellar Selection
