This new vintage of the iconic Cristal Rosé is a testament to the absolute excellence of Maison Louis Roederer. Born from a masterful blend of 55% Pinot Noir and 45% Chardonnay from the finest vineyards in Champagne, this rare vintage seduces with its luminous pink colour, its bursting nose of red fruits and its full, silky palate with remarkable saline freshness. A true gastronomic wine, it offers a perfect balance between intensity, purity and refinement, worthy of the greatest collectible champagnes. Cristal Rosé is as much a collectible champagne as it is a gastronomic wine.
The sommelier info
A symbol of the refinement of Maison Louis Roederer, Cristal Rosé embodies the quintessence of prestige champagne. Made from the finest crus of Aÿ, Avize and Mesnil-sur-Oger (half from the ‘la Rivière’ vineyard and half from the ‘la Côte’ vineyard), this rare vintage is distinguished by its pale pink colour with coppery highlights and its extremely fine effervescence. The nose reveals remarkable purity, blending intense aromas of fresh red fruits, redcurrants and raspberries, enhanced by notes of candied citrus fruits, dried flowers and a delicate smoky touch. The palate is full-bodied and silky, opening with a dense and concentrated texture before revealing a vibrant freshness and saline minerality that are the hallmarks of the noble Champagne terroir. Long, precise and deeply elegant, Cristal Rosé is a champagne for gastronomy and collectors, to be enjoyed today for its dazzling tension or kept for several years to admire its subtle and refined evolution.

The domain
Louis Roederer is one of the oldest and most influential Champagne wineries. It is a creator of singular tastes thanks to its vineyard classified as Grands Crus and its parcellar vinifications. We all know the success story of Cristal Roederer, a must-see since its creation in 1876.
The Roederer story began in 1776 with the creation of the Maison in Reims but it was in 1833 that Louis Roederer inherited it. He will then create a style and a unique spirit for his champagnes and buy parcels of Grand Cru. Today, Maison Roederer is still family-run and is run by Frédéric Rouzaud, 7th generation. The 240 ha Roederer vineyard is composed of the historical grape varieties of the region, to produce Champagnes mainly based on Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, with a few touches of Pinot Meunier. Champagnes Louis Roederer are highly renowned and a symbol of elegance and luxury.
Maison Louis Roederer practices family viticulture and assumes that to make the best possible wines, everything starts in the vineyard and respect the nature that surrounds it. Louis Roederer Champagnes is the essence of these human and fundamental values. The protection of biodiversity, the replanting of old vines as well as their selection and the work of the horse in the most beautiful terroirs of the property are major concerns. Roederer’s peculiarity also comes from its small tanks, which make it possible to establish a very wide aromatic palette. Each year, 4 months are dedicated to the assembly of the next Louis Roederer cuvées.
The emblematic cuvée of Maison Louis Roederer is of course the Cristal Roederer, created especially for Alexander II. This paranoid Russian tsar feared being poisoned, so it was necessary to design a transparent bottle with a flat bottom to keep suspicions of explosives away. Beyond being a very beautiful bottle, Cristal Roederer champagne is also an elixir: its complexity, depth and mouth touch have proven themselves over the years. It also exists in rosé. Roederer produces vintage and non-milled cuvées, which are among the references: Brut Premier now called Collection 242-243, Carte Blanche of which 5% is aged in barrels, Vintage Brut, Rosé and Blanc de Blancs... We can also mention the Brut Nature, in collaboration with the French designer Philippe Stark: it is a vintage champagne very little dosed.
