Louis Roederer Cristal Rose Champagne 2008 75cl / 750ml

Established in 1776, Champagne Louis Roederer is one of the few remaining completely independent family owned champagne houses.​​​​​​​ Produced using the saignée (bleeding) process after cold maceration for five to eight days in the liquid phase. The CristalRosé cuvée is aged, on average, for six years in Roederer’s cellars and left for eight months after dégorgement (disgorging) to attain the perfect balance. ​​​​​​​Cristal Rosé is the rarest champagne produced by Champagne Louis Roederer. When the ideal vintage occurs and the wine is produced, it is done with regimented standards of winemaking that require a rigorous selection of crus, vintages, grapes and wine. The traditional skin maceration is used in order to gently extract the natural pigments for the unique colour and create the particular style of this rosé.
