The beautiful impressive 2002 Rose has a lifting and luminous aromas with a wide spectrum dominated by an orange-red glow. This complexity becomes deeper and more somber in the finish with hints of smoke and black cherry. The wine has an assertive presence and is remarkably tactile with creamy fleshiness and caressing intensity. The feeling of fullness stretches out and sustains the sappy vibrant crystalline note."

"The 2002 Brut Rose explodes from the glass with endless layers of huge voluptuous fruit A big full-bodied wine the 2002 is probably the most overly vinous intense Rose ever made by long-time Chef de Caves Richard Geoffroy. Layers of cool insistent minerality balance the fruit beautifully on the crystalline vivid finish. The 2002 will be nearly impossible to resist young but take my word for it; the wine is extremely closed right now. "

"What can I say about the 2002 Dom Pérignon Rosé from magnum? Not much except readers lucky enough to find bottles should not hesitate to snap them up. From magnum the 2002 Rosé is naturally quite tightly wound but it will be spectacular in a few years once it starts to open up a bit. Today the exuberance of the wine from bottle is nowhere to be found so opening a magnum is going to be a very costly experiment at this stage. I am reminded of a tasting I did a few years ago with friends where we opened the 1996 Rosé from bottle magnum and double magnum side by side. The bottle was the best wine right out the gate while the double magnum was totally impenetrable but after 4-5 hours the big bottle was interplanetary. Patience patience patience."
