Community Tasting Note

Tuesday, January 30, 2024 - This would be a great wine to serve blind just to get guesses. Aside from Rosé non-Champagne Sparkling, this is where the answers would diverge. Barrel fermented, tirage bottled. 24 months on lees with 2 g/L dosage. Pours a dark salmon color to the glass with nose of tart red cherries, red roses, but a very yeasty base that carries through to the palate. This wine has characteristics of a PetNat, without a doubt, but has the salinity, depth and character of a boutique sparkling wine producer. Entry was medium depth, baked red cherries, strawberries and white chocolate, brambly raspberries and cream, yet a base that has a lot of yeasty raucous flinty minerals. A divergence from the normal unilateral PetNat and your sometimes basic grower Champagnebhouse, this sparkling with rather tiny bubbles and complexity is sure to please. Really interesting and quite enjoyable sparkling Rosé, best enjoyed now.
