In 1974, nearly 200 years after the foundation of the Louis Roederer House and 100 years after the creation of Cristal, Jean-Claude Rouzaud decided to create the Cristal Rosé cuvée. To achieve this, he selected individual old vineyards of Pinot Noir located in the best land plots of the Grand Crud'Aÿ. Located on limestone and argilla-based soil, these vineyards are known for extraordinary fruit maturation in the best years, associated to a crystalline and pure acidity perfectly corresponding to the Cristal style. Today, these vineyards are cultivated according to biodynamic techniques.
