Roederer Cristal Champagne 2015/2016

Poped this open for a birthday dinner and that 2015 vintage really delivers—the finish is remarkably long and clean. It's got this elegant balance of toast and citrus that cuts through rich food perfectly.

Opened this for a birthday toast and the 750ml bottle gave us six generous glasses without losing its crisp, citrusy edge. The 2015 vintage feels round and mature, but still has that lively, precise finish that makes it worth the splurge.

The fine bubbles danced for hours after pouring, and the 750ml bottle was perfect for our anniversary dinner. This vintage has a creaminess that makes every sip feel luxurious.
