N/V Rosé de Saignée, Extra Brut, Emmanuel Brochet (2020 Base, disgorged December 2022)
This Pinot Meunier Rosé comes from a single parcel: La Motelle. This tiny production wine is made by macerating the berries for 24 hours before drawing the pale pink juice off to ferment and mature in oak barrels. It retains the crisp, fresh delicacy of the grape variety, with the fruit-forward approach of a classical rosé. Utterly charming and decidedly rare.
