Tasting Notes
Upon tasting, the Cristal Rosé Vinothèque 2002 displays a luminous amber color with copper highlights, revealing its long aging. The nose is fascinatingly complex, blending evolved aromas of dried fruit (apricot, hazelnut), toast, acacia honey, as well as notes of stewed red fruit and sweet spices. On the palate, richness and power dominate, but are perfectly balanced by a residual freshness and remarkable mineral tension. The texture is velvety and full, with a long, deep finish, blending sweetness and elegance. An exceptional champagne to be savored slowly, ideal with refined dishes such as lobster, foie gras or mature cheeses.

Founded in 1776 in Reims, the Louis Roederer house is one of the last great Champagne houses to remain family-owned and independent. It owes its international renown to exceptional expertise, a constant demand for quality, and perfect mastery of the entire production chain, from the vineyard to the cellar.

The house now owns more than 240 hectares of vines, located exclusively in the Grands and Premiers Crus of Champagne, which allows it great autonomy and a unique style. At the helm of the cuvée production, Jean-Baptiste Lécaillon, a visionary cellar master, embodies oenological excellence and innovation. He has profoundly influenced the identity of Roederer wines, notably through sustainable and biodynamic viticulture.

The house’s flagship is undoubtedly Cristal, created in 1876 for Tsar Alexander II of Russia. This legendary cuvée, produced only in the best years, is today one of the most sought-after champagnes in the world. Its perfect balance, purity, crystalline elegance, and exceptional aging potential make it a true work of oenological art.
