    February 19, 2022 - not blind
    A lot of fine bubbles, nougat notes, fresh, milk chocolate, dries fruits, some honey. Lovely aged champagne. Never drink a Cristal too young if you want to get the whole movie. The elegance remains but you get bunch of aromas. 96

    January 18, 2019 - Regular bottle in good coulor and filling. iodine in nose but mint chocolate, dry apricots and figs in the palate, good acidity structure. just over his peak. Nice mousseux but maybe a hint of acidity lack. 95-96

    April 4, 2015 - The bottle was mot in perfect shape (low level; C/D-stand). I bought this bottle because of the good colour. It is so much easier with old Cristal because of the crystal clear bottle.
    Perfect golden colour. This wine had some sediment in the bottle.
    Still some bubbles left.
    Nuts, toast, caramel, brown sugar, mushroom and honey.
    Lovely mouthfill! Elegant structure based on the mineral, nice acidity, lovely flavours. Long elegant finish.

    If this wine had a better mousse and more bubbles it would have been a top Champagne.

    November 1, 2012 - Clearly aged on the nose with notes of figs and dried citrus as well as fudge, cinnamon, tar, meat and toasted nuts.
    Dry palate with decent acidity bringing nice vivacity to the aged appley fruit. No moussé left. Saline touch, coffee, meat, chalk, cinnamon and loads of burnt sugar and toasted nuts. Lengthy.
    Clearly past its prime and very aged, but packing still some fine complexity and definitely a breath of life.
