Emmanuel Brochet Rosé de Saignée NV is crafted from a meticulous selection of Pinot Noir grapes. This wine undergoes a 24-hour skin maceration, enhancing its colour and complexity. Maturation occurs in used oak barrels for a year, creating a structured profile. The resulting hue is a delicate pink, while the nose reveals a blend of red fruits, including strawberries, alongside underlying minerality. Flavours showcase vibrant redcurrants and the overall mouthfeel is noted for its richness. Emmanuel Brochet is a renowned Champagne producer committed to organic methods, ensuring quality and authenticity.

The NV Rosé d`Assemblage (2021 base) was produced from organically farmed, old-vine Pinot Meunier—massal selections planted in 1965 in the lieu-dit La Motelle, located just a few hundred meters from Brochet’s estate in Villers-aux-Nœuds. Though the supplier harvests the grapes himself, pressing and vinification occur at Brochet’s facility. Disgorged in January 2024 with a dosage of two grams per liter, the blend is composed of 90% 2021 vinified as blanc de noirs, married with 10% red wine and a lightly macerated rosé from the 2020 vintage. It bursts from the glass with an intense aromatic profile. pomegranate, redcurrant and blood orange mingling with notes of spice and rose petals. Brochet previously produced a Rosé de Saignée but has since transitioned to assemblage—a method he believes yields greater freshness, elegance and equilibrium. On the palate, the wine is medium- to full-bodied and has a lighter, more graceful structure than prior renditions, which in comparison now seem more gastronomic and robust. Shaped by the cool 2021 growing season, this cuvée is bright and precise, with mouthwatering acidity and a long, mineral finish. - Kristaps Karklins
