February 4, 2024 - Vilmart--Emotion and Coeur de Cuvee (select vintages), the meal anchored by Astrid (My House In The South OC): October 2020 disgorgement, Cherry, strawberry with a nice lick of minerality in a zesty package....fortunately I have the leftover bottle from last night, with plenty of wine (and C02) for retaste today. Salmon/pink in color. This is a very good iteration of Rubis. It has the density of a riper year, yet the acidity is plentiful, allowing both parts to work together. For me, more in the unctuous side of things, with a cool blood orange coil running through it, alongside a vein of strawberry. Stylistically, this works really well, so long as you're Ok with a richer, fuller expression of Rose.
