Nyetimber Rosé NV
EnglandNyetimber is one of England's most lauded and recognized fizz producers, and one that believes in traceability. A code on the back of the bottle allows you to trace this rosé at www.nyetimber.com/wineinfo. From West Sussex's greensand and chalk soils, this blends 60-75 percent pinot noir with 25-40 percent chardonnay, and a splash of pinot meunier. This contains up to 18 percent reserve wines, and spends an average of five years on the lees prior to release, with a dosage of 9 g/l. The pure, round cherry core is built out with a cushion of toasted brioche and scents of hazelnut, the whole rinsed with youthful, brisk raspberry, leaving the finish slightly astringent and amply fresh.Tasted: 30 September 2018Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:USA | $80.00 | 750ml | USA |
