As a group, the 2008 Champagnes are focused and tightly wound. The 2008 Cristal Ros? has plenty of those qualities, but what places it in a truly rarified category is its sheer depth and verticality. Vinous, powerful and resonant, the 2008 Cristal Ros? has more than enough stuffing to support decades of cellaring. For starters, it won't be ready to drink for another 5-10 years. This is a positively monumental, towering Champagne from Chef de Caves Jean-Baptiste L?caillon and his team.
