Quinta do E Vinho Espumate Bruto Classico Rose NV
Bairrada, Northern Portugal, PortugalSoft, fruity, and expansive, this is a rustic traditional method fizz from touriga nacional (yes, you read that correctly). Six months on the lees, plus one month in bottle post-disgorgement. Gruff and grippy, this is raspberry, strawberry, red currants on a frothy, dry medium body. The tannic rusticity here welcomes pairing with pork ribs at a summer grill, or Asian styled (this can take heat).Tasted: 27 July 2017Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:BC | $21.00 | 750ml | estimated retail |
