The 2012 Brut Rosé Emotion is heady, exotic and so alluring. Rose petal, spice, cinnamon, mint, crushed raspberry and white pepper all soar out of the glass. The Emotion is everything a top Rosé should be; aromatic, deep and pure sensuality. Vilmart fans won"t want to miss it. The 2012 is a blend of 60% Pinot and 40% Chardonnay. Disgorged: March, 2018. Drink between 2021-2030
The 2012 Vilmart & Cie “Rosé Emotion” Brut is composed from a cépages of sixty percent pinot noir and forty percent chardonnay, with the wine taking its beautiful salmon color from the saignée method with the pinot. All of the vines that go into this bottling are fully sixty years of age. The vins clairs are given an extended elevage of ten months in barrel prior to bottling up for secondary fermentation and the wine was disgorged in March of 2018 after four and a half years aging sur latte. The wine is drinking splendidly as it closes in on its tenth birthday, offering up a deep and refined bouquet of strawberries, a touch of blood orange, rhubarb, chalky soil tones, dried rose petals, a touch of spice and a gently smoky topnote. On the palate the wine is crisp, full-bodied, focused and complex, with a lovely core, fine soil signature, utterly refined mousse and a long, beautifully balanced and vibrant finish. This is outstanding Rosé! Drink between 2021-2045
