Still a baby, the 2004 Cristal Rosé has begun to put on considerable weight over the last few years, which only serves to balance the focus and tension that have always been present. Even at eleven years of age, the 2004 Cristal Rosé remains tightly wound and a touch austere at times. Hints of orange peel, white pepper and cranberry add an exotic flair on the deeply expressive finish. Readers who can find the 2004 should not hesitate, as it is simply stunning by any measure. (Drink between 2016-2044)
"... The 2004 Cristal Rose is 70% Pinot from Ay and 30% Chardonnay from Avize. .. A final burst of floral red berries on the finish bodes well for the future..."
