🏰 The 2016 Vilmart & Cie Emotion Brut Champagne is a captivating rosé, a blend of 60% Chardonnay and 40% Pinot Noir, with 15% of the Pinot Noir as red wine, all from Premier Cru vines aged sixty years. This vintage faced climatic challenges including excessive rain, frost, mildew, hail, drought, and sunburn, leading to reduced yields and uneven ripening. Despite this, the wine is described as stellar, showcasing gorgeous textural breadth and intensity. It underwent ten months of aging in 228-liter oak barrels and sixty months on lees, with no malolactic fermentation and a dosage of 7 g/l. Its robe is a bright pink with amber notes, and the effervescence is gentle and persistent, forming delicate, fine bubbles. On the nose, it's powerful and fruity, revealing aromas of red fruit like sour cherry, raspberry, and red currant, complemented by floral notes of violet and dried rose petal, with a hint of vanilla. The palate offers a sharp and vivid attack, delivering pink grapefruit, strawberry, and rose petal aromas, finishing with notes of cinnamon and blood orange. This rosé is enchanting for Champagne lovers who appreciate a combination of freshness and vinosity. 【 Stellar Rosé Champagne 】 🍴 This cuvée pairs beautifully with refined dishes such as salmon in strawberry foil, fried langoustines, fillet of red mullet, or even a rib of lamb marinated with vegetables.
