Winery Review: Rosé salmon with copper reflections. Slow rising fine bubble that forms “lace” and “rosary”. In the nose is complex and elegant with red fruit, citric, exotic, fresh flowers, and notes of dry fruits and dry flowers. Fresh, gentle, and alive. Perfectly integrated “perlage” with serious and subtle flavors of dry fruits, pomegranate and lemonade. Long lasting scent of flowers and herbs.
My Review: Although heavy in fruit on the nose, the combination of floral notes and fruit was a strange one. The cherry and strawberry taste clashed with the pollen-like floral flavors, which was only magnified by the citrus-acid component of the lemonade. Maybe others would enjoy this as a light summer beverage, but there were too many components for my liking.
