Community Tasting Note

  • Callum's Corkers Likes this wine: 91 points

    June 3, 2020 - Bought online Nakes Wines UK, £14.99

    12.5% alc

    Well chilled, popped n poured.

    Decent value-for-money Rose drinking very well at just 1 yr old - as is intended - with heaps of class and attractive flavours, and even some complexity. Ends near-dry. Will buy again. A modern new-wave Rose, million miles away from the old boring insipid Rose' from Provence. Superb example of a wine that's both a Foodie and a Quaffer.

    C....pale pink, looks light body

    N....blanched peeled almonds, rose water, pink rose petals, though no real intensity

    T..... bigger mouth-feel that it's appearence suggested, juicy exciting acidity, grapefruit pulp and grapefruit zest, good concentration, this is serious wine with plenty of personality: crisp red apples, touch of strawberry, tart pineapple, furry tannins, nice lilt at the end. Made in near-dry style.

    VFMoney?.....feels worth £20, cost was £14.99. Good VFM, will buy their 2019 again, drink young and fresh.
