Note di degustazione
Served alongside the superb 2008 and much more orange (it was a botrytis year). Made before Lécaillon's winemaking system was in place (in fact, although he arrived at Roederer in 1989, he wasn't in charge of winemaking until 1999). Dosage 12 g/l. Magnum. Sweet and rich but without the zest and structure of the 2008. Clearly quite evolved and chunky – more brutal than the 2008. (JR)

The 1995 Cristal Rosé (Late Disgorged) is an excellent choice for drinking now, as it has pretty much reached the point where further improvement in the cellar is unlikely. At the same time, the 1995 shows no signs of fading; rather it gives the impression it will stay at this plateau for at least a handful of years, and likely longer. The flavors are bold and direct in a powerful yet slightly compact Cristal Rosé built on length. Orange peel, sweet red stone fruits, cinnamon, hazelnut and coffee add the final layers of nuance.
Magnum. Just 20,000 bottles made. Very pale, rose-tinged gold. Edge of green metal. Great spread of flavour on the palate. V flattering. Full and rich. Very very long. Can enjoy now. Great power with hint of rose-petal fragrance. Definitely Pinot Noir. (JR)
Very pale rose-gold color. Singular nose hints at wild strawberry, raspberry and toast, along with exotic hints of mango and pineapple. Very dry and elegant, but with extraordinary intensity of flavor and incipient creaminess. An extremely young wine with the material and structure to develop for another 15 years or more. A great rose.
