Presented in a giftbox, Louis Roederer Cristal Rosé 1999 is a prestigious vintage Champagne combining Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, with the depth and elegance associated with the Cristal range. Cristal was created in 1876 for Tsar Alexander II, and this mature rosé offers a distinctive expression of the house’s celebrated cuvée.
Tasting Notes
A delicate rosé hue is followed by aromas of raspberry and strawberry, with subtle citrus and toasted almond. The palate is finely structured, with persistent bubbles, delicate spice and a long, mineral finish.
With its concentration and extended ageing, the 1999 has the potential to develop further, though its condition and evolution will depend on how the bottle has been stored.
Production
Made from Pinot Noir and Chardonnay sourced from carefully selected Grand Cru vineyards in Champagne, the blend typically gives Pinot Noir the leading role. The rosé colour is achieved through maceration, and the wine is produced using the traditional Champagne method. Further details about harvest practices and specific vinification choices for this vintage are not provided.
Food & Serving
A special-occasion match for lobster, salmon or veal, it can also be served on its own as an aperitif. Serve well chilled, around 8–10°C. Decanting is not usually necessary for Champagne; for a mature bottle, open gently and allow a few minutes in the glass to reveal its aromas.
Producer
Founded in 1776, Louis Roederer is one of Champagne’s historic houses and remains family-owned. Cristal was first made in 1876 for Tsar Alexander II and has since become the house’s flagship cuvée, recognised for its prestige and distinctive style.
