THE PINK NV Pair

cranberry and wild strawberry overlay rich brioche patisserie

£78.00

Description

A soft and restrained pale salmon pink colour with persistent fine bubbles. Fresh raspberry, cranberry and wild strawberry overlay a rich brioche patisserie base on the nose. The palate is vibrant with bright citrus fruit combining with creamy, soft meringue characters. A pleasingly long and textural finish making this wine perfect for matching with a range of dishes. Enjoy now or as the wine develops further opulence over the next 12 months.

Tasting Notes

A pale onion skin crossed with white peach threaded with a persistent, fine mousse.

The nose shows ripe red berry fruits - wild strawberry and cherries - overlaid with heady summer florals all held in a soft and bready frame.  The addition of the 2015 and 2016 reserve wines bring a further layer of complexity with toasted nuts and sweet spice.

Thanks to the long lees ageing it is rich and round on the palate, with notes of raspberry, cranberry and redcurrant held in a delightful creaminess, but the fresh acidity provides the perfect balance and leads to a refreshing but persistent and luxurious finish.
