The Hatch Octobubble Brut Rosé 2017
Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaOctobubble's label shows an octopus floating in champagne while throwing wine barrels with Napoleon stranded on his head. Duh. This is a charmat method fizz of pinot blanc, and pinot noir, ripe and fruity with sun-ripened raspberry, cherry, red apple, cocoa on a full, frothy palate. Simple and welcoming, like an octopus?
