Characterised by weather extremes, 1999 gave rise to full-bodied, rich and sunny champagnes, which today delight in defying time.

A snapshot of a year, this Rosé comes from 35 small staggered plots on the warm terroirs of Cumières planted with Pinot noir, and the cooler limestone soils of Chouilly, where the Chardonnay grows. From these contrasting soils of Domaine Louis Roederer in the Vallée de la Marne (also known as the Vignoble de la Rivière) comes an original rosé, always produced as a vintage champagne. The cellar master has a special destiny in store for it, something unique in Champagne, a long, gentle infusion of the Pinot noir that will enable him to draw out its juicy, ripe character while preserving its tremendous saline freshness.

Aged for at least four years in the cellars, this is a graceful, intense and fresh Rosé Champagne unlike any other.

This Rosé 1999 continues to improve with time and proudly bears its mark.

The more candied and honeyed notes acquired over time contrast with its freshness and silky mouthfeel. This champagne has preserved its warm and elegant character.

Our champagnes undergo an extended period of ageing to allow them to gently evolve and mature, gaining in structure and depth, whilst developing highly nuanced aromas over the years.

You may enjoy them in the purity and chalky freshness of their youth or, if you appreciate more mature champagnes, wait a few more years or even decades for their candied, spicy notes to emerge. Our champagnes have a long future ahead of them and their destiny is in your hands!
