Kim Crawford Pansy! Rosé 2003
Marlborough, South Island, New ZealandPansy! is a Kiwi ode to pink although in this case the '03 vintage is pressing its limit of freshness. Almost more Beaujolais at this point the merlot cabernet franc blend gets a dash of late harvest chardonnay to add some sweetness to the mix of earthy leafy berry fruit flavours. Credit its screwcap closure with keeping this wine alive. Drink now. We look forward to a new vintage soon.Tasted: 09 July 2006Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $18.99 | 750ml | private wine shops |
