{"product_id":"2009-roederer-champagne-cristal","title":"Louis Roederer Champagne Cristal 2009","description":"\u003cp\u003e($249) 2009 Cristal has really shut down since I tasted it this past spring, which is probably a very good thing for its potential longevity. The radiance and richness the 2009 showed just a few months ago is not all evident. Instead, the 2009 comes across as tightly wound and in need of considerable cellaring. I expect it will drink well for a period measured in decades rather than years. The 2009 has always been quite exuberant, but for now, it looks the wine is going to need a bit of time before it is at its best. Readers should note that Roederer has decided to release the 2009 ahead of the 2008.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVinous\/Galloni 96+\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vins Rare","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46037421326575,"sku":"4691","price":199.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0707\/7140\/9135\/files\/Cristal_9b65fd34-e8f3-4f89-81c8-cf39455830c7.jpg?v=1731312560","url":"https:\/\/vinsrare.com\/products\/2009-roederer-champagne-cristal","provider":"Vins Rare","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
