Louis Roederer Cristal Brut Naked (limited) 2014

Louis Roederer has dubbed the 2014 vintage a “weather waltz,” a lovely term but it does suggest that conditions might have not always been optimal. The house noted “clear, sharp contrasts! The spring was sunny and dry and ended with a heatwave in June; summer was autumnal, cool, and rainy; September was hot, sunny, and very dry . . . weather we would usually associate with the month of August.”
