**Serving Suggestion:** For this 1978 Cristal, ensure it has been stored in optimal cellar conditions. Chill gently to around 8-10°C (46-50°F). The cork may be fragile, so open carefully. Decanting is generally not recommended for aged Champagne as it can dissipate the delicate effervescence and aromas too quickly. Serve in tulip-shaped Champagne flutes to best appreciate its complexity and bubbles.
