Vinous: 98 Points
Even better the 1996 Cristal Rosé blossoms on the palate with magnificent depth and pure volume. The sense of phenolics ripeness and vinous intensity are very much evident. Today the 1996 Cristal Rosé is utterly captivating for its sensual enveloping personality and total sense of class. (Drink between 2014-2024)
Wine Advocate: 98 Points
The 1996 Cristal Rose is an intensely-flavored Champagne with an unusually light pale salmon color. Its effervescence is restrained (almost non-existent) but the flavors are intense in this dry austere provocative offering. An outrageously great singularly-styled rose Champagne it is best served with intensely-flavored food. It is a tour de force in Champagne to enjoy over the next 7-10 years. Louis Roederer does not display a disgorgement date or consumer friendly lot number on its non-vintage Brut. This is regrettable as it has consistently been one of the finer bottlings in this category.
