Wine Shop Review: Bright orange-pink. Lively, mineral-tinged aromas of fresh red berries, orange peel and honeysuckle, with a hint of anise building in the glass. Dry and nervy in the mouth, offering vibrant strawberry and orange pith flavors and a suggestion of rose pastille. The floral element comes back on the finish, which lingers with very good spicy persistence.
Personal Review: The Pinot Noire Sancerre Rose had a very strong presence at the nose. I picked up predominantly apples and peaches but there was also an undeniable floral presence. The initial impression of the tasting was quite unique. I found the Pinot Noir Sancerre Rose to be surprisingly sour. Truly, the Pinot Noir Sancerre Rose mimicked a sour patch kid in the sense that it started off sour and ended sweet as the fruity floral elements returned.
Note: I did not consume this wine with food.
