This 2021 Brut Rose marks Cuvaison’s ninth vintage of producing a sparkling wine. Comprised of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, there is a lovely delicateness to this wine, a softness that is alluring. You will find notes of strawberry, raspberry, light lemon chiffon, white peach, violet petals, rose water, a hint of black cherry, and lime peel. There is a compelling minerality running through this along with a moderate acidity to make this structurally competent. The fruit is evident, the bubbles inviting and this makes for a great food companion
Yellow gold in color with slight green hues, clear and bright. The nose is nice. Some lemons, slightly "sweaty" with a but of earthines. Full bodied. Good balance. On the palate, this is cleaner than the nose. Lemon drop candy with a nice texture. Some char/smoke. Turn tart (in a good way on the finish). This is nice on its own and will work well with many foods. A nice choice would be grilled veggies. Drink over the next few years.
