The wine in this vintage

Frost, hail and downy mildew slashed yields in 2012, but the warm summer and a glorious September brought concentrated, deep Pinot Noir to perfect ripeness. Cristal Rosé 2012 is a faithful portrait: crisp red fruit, pomegranate, citrus, rose petals, spice and a chalky thread, on a palate that is both intense and lifted, with long saline persistence. Robert Parker awarded it 98 points. Already very expressive, it is a rosé of great structure, able to evolve harmoniously for many years to come. Its vinosity makes it a remarkable match for refined dishes, from game birds to aged cheeses.

The producer · Louis Roederer

Founded in Reims in 1776 and led by Louis Roederer from 1833, the house is one of the few great Champagne houses still independent and family-owned, run today by Frédéric Rouzaud, a direct descendant, with cellar master Jean-Baptiste Lécaillon. Its defining asset is its own vineyard holding, more than 240 hectares across the Montagne de Reims, Vallée de la Marne and Côte des Blancs, which covers most of its needs and gives complete control of the fruit, with a progressive move to organic and biodynamic farming. The name is inseparable from Cristal, created in 1876 for Tsar Alexander II of Russia in its famous clear, flat-bottomed bottle and offered commercially from 1945. Made only in great years from Pinot Noir and Chardonnay grown in the finest crus, Cristal embodies a luminous, silky style of crystalline purity. Since 1974 it has been joined by Cristal Rosé, born from old Pinot Noir vines in Aÿ.
