Vilmart et Cie Cuvée Rubis Brut Rosé NV

<p>5th generation Laurent Champs has been leading this great estate since 1989 in the village of Rilly-la-Montagne, with 11ha of vineyards of larger parcels, spanning only to the neighbouring village. For over 30 years, extensive soil work through the use of organic and sustainable viticulture with no use of chemicals help to keep all vines and soils healthy. There is also much attention in the gravity-fed winery, where Laurent prefers the traditional Coquard press and oak barrels of many sizes for the fermentation (5500L, 600L, 228L), with malo avoided. To quote Laurent, &ldquo;I make wine first, and the bubbles afterwards.&rdquo; Many would agree that the wines in the Vilmart lineup have extraordinary class, finesse, &amp; elegance!</p>

Based on the 2022 vintage, complemented by 50% reserve wines from 2021 and 2020, and crafted from a blend of 90% Pinot Noir (including 15% red wine) and 10% Chardonnay, Vilmart’s latest NV Cuvée Rubis was disgorged in July 2024 with a dosage of eight grams per liter. Leaping from the glass with aromas of strawberry compote, cherry and candied pear mingling with brioche and pink grapefruit, it's full-bodied, expressive and ample. Its voluminous core of ripe yet lively fruit is underscored by a pronounced phenolic presence and succulent acidity, making it the most indulgent wine in the range. Though slightly sweet on the finish, it pairs beautifully with dishes like tuna or red meat. It is vinified in large casks. - (Wine Advocate)
