A wonderful and insightful journey though the Loire wines -- young and old, sweet and dry. The most surprising discovery for me was the number of unique stamps put by individual wine makers on their creations -- in every flight it was often difficult to say whether one was tasting the same grape variety. Some creations were easier to contemplate than to enjoy, and perhaps that was the point after all.
2014 Maisons Brulées Les Maisons bullées rosé
France, Loire Valley
Gamay, natural yeasts. Cider or lambic-like feel overall, fleshy red fruit, but a touch sour, as a young goat cheese. Not a traditional dry rose.
