It was finished with a dosage of 7 g\/L.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the glass it shows a pale, delicate pink colour and fine, persistent bubbles, with aromas of wild strawberry, raspberry and flowers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCristal was first created in 1876 for Tsar Alexander II of Russia, and it remains one of the most celebrated prestige cuvées in Champagne. The rosé is made only in exceptional years and in far smaller quantities than Cristal Brut, which makes each vintage a collector's bottle. The 2013 growing season was late and cool, and it produced a pure, precise rosé built for long ageing as well as for celebration today.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Wild strawberry, raspberry and delicate floral notes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pure and precise, with tart red fruit, chalky freshness and a fine, creamy mousse.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Long, saline and elegant.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProducer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Champagne Louis Roederer, Reims\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVintage:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2013\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlend:\u003c\/strong\u003e 55% Pinot Noir, 45% Chardonnay\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDosage:\u003c\/strong\u003e 7 g\/L\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Champagne, France\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to Enjoy It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eServe Cristal Rosé well chilled, around 8 to 10°C, in a white-wine glass or a tulip flute that lets the aromas open.
