"Now with an additional year in bottle, the 2015 Brut Rosé Emotion has moved into its more nuanced, ethereal stage. Cranberry, mint, spice and white pepper open with some coaxing, taking the place of the more fruit-driven notes that were present last year. There's good depth, but today I find the 2015 a touch closed. As always, the Emotion is a Champagne of understatement that often has a real feeling of elusiveness. Dosage is 8 grams per liter. Disgorged: February 2022."

"The 2016 Brut Rosé Emotion is quite impressive today. Dark red cherry, pomegranate, blood orange and white pepper all race across the palate, showing notable depth and overall intensity. Just-disgorged, the 2016 is quite young today. The power of the Pinot Noir is especially apparent. In most vintages, that youthful exuberance mellows into a more subtle, ethereal Rosé as its color moves from intense red to more of a salmon/copperish hue. I expect that will be the same here. Dosage is 8 grams per liter. Disgorged: October 2023."
