Community Tasting Note

The Drunken Cyclist Likes this wine:

Sunday, May 13, 2018 - Gosset is perhaps my singular favorite champagne producer and that is based on only two wines: the Grande Réserve and this wine, the Grand Rosé. This particular bottle I bought for close to a song: $38 from the PLCB. I brought this wine to Texas when we moved down here nearly two years ago. I was worried that the wines would not weather the journey well, but upon opening this bottle, I was no longer fearful. To call this pink might be a stretch--this is much more of a brilliant orange with a pink tinge. On the nose: slightly oxidized tart cherry with brioche and heavenly goodness. Tart, vivacious, seductive. Whoa. Still fruity, but quite tart, this exudes rhubarb, strawberry, and slightly under-ripe Bing Cherry. Whoa. Still going strong and no signs of stopping. thedrunkencyclist.com
