I reviewed this Sparkling Wine back in the middle of summer.
I reviewed this Sparkling Wine back in the middle of summer.
Appearance: bridal blush pink
Aroma: bubbles tickle the nose, dusty grapes,
Flavors and Mouthfeel: the first thing I notice is the
effervescence and then the dry mouthfeel, hint of muskmelon with a touch of
strawberry, lightly tart cranberry, with a pinch of pink peppercorn
To the Point: I don’t know about having this sparkling wine
on a hot summer day like today (95 degrees with 80+ humidity). I wanted something different on this hot day
and this has been sitting there waiting to be selected for at least six
months. I thought a little sparkling
wine might go well on a hot day. I don’t
think the dry mouthfeel fits the bill.
Save this for a cool fall night.
