Vilmart & Cie Brut Rose Emotion (750ML)

From Champagne

Vintage: 2014
Description: 94 Vm / 94 Ws. Vilmart remains a reference point for Champagnes that are all about elegance and refinement. I tasted through a number of new releases and also had a chance to revisit some wines from last year that showed poorly at the offices of Vilmart's Us importer. Of note is the new Grand Cellier Oenothèque T15, a late release of the Grand Cellier. The 2013 Les Blanches Voies is stellar, but the 2015 Coeur de Cuvée is even more impressive given the challenges of that year. As always, the wines are vinified and aged in oak, with the wood used discretely to shape Champagnes that are all finesse-Antonio Galloni, Vinous Media. A harmonious rosé Champagne, with sleek acidity creating a mouthwatering frame for the focused range of ripe black cherry, blood orange granita, ground ginger and lime blossom flavors. Shows good concentration as the flavors expand on the palate, but this is racy, with good drive and energy through to the lingering finish, where hints of chopped almond and minerally saline and chalk emerge. Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Disgorged April 2021. Drink now through 2034. 50 cases imported.--Alison Napjus, Wine Spectator
