Product details
Each Bottle Is A Jewel - A veritable technical feat that requires great expertise and is inspired by the tradition of jewelry making, Louis Roederer’s medallion bottle is comprised of 24-carat gold open latticework. The 2002 cuvée has a jewel-like appearance, revealing its many facets through the many reflections created by this sensual and eternal powdered gold openwork covering. Each medallion bottle is 100% handcrafted, requiring the craftsmanship of 2 master goldsmiths, 7 meters of brass strip plated in 24 carat gold, 158 silver soldering points, and 4 days of work. Precise, silky, and harmonious with a rich, powerful body that has a very pure balance and incredible ageing potential. It is a taut and delicate wine. It displays a pure, precise combination of sweet flower, cocoa, finely roasted hazelnuts, and candied citrus fruit. The texture is infinitely silky, concentrated, and flavorsome, with an explosion of ripe fruits, red fruits, white chocolate, caramel, and pastries that is typical of Cristal. Only produced in Jeroboam and in very limited quantities.
