Overview

Disgorged four years ago, with four grams per liter dosage, after a decade sur lattes and six years sur pointes, the 2000 Cristal Vinothèque bursts with notes of golden orchard fruit, mandarin, white flowers and iodine. Full-bodied, ample and powerful, with a deep and layered core, lively acids and a beautifully pearly mousse, it's a long, sapid Champagne that's showing very well today. As Lecaillon observes, the Vinothèque is the house's riposte to "everyone who says Cristal is released too young—with the Vinothèque releases, we've exaggerated the aging process to make Cristal more powerful and more dramatic." And this release is certainly a formidable effort in a vintage impacted by hail in the Montagne de Reims.

Vinous

95 POINTS
The 2000 Cristal Vinothèque is a huge, powerful wine with more size, body, and vinous intensity than the original release. Apple tart, spice, tangerine oil, hazelnut and dried flowers build in the glass, filling out the flavors effortlessly. The Vinothèque shows more body and size than the original release, but the two wines are not hugely different, certainly not to the degree they are later in this series. Dosage was 7 grams per liter. Disgorged: 2018. By Antonio Galloni March 2023
