TASTING NOTE: Fresh cut cantaloupe and grapefruit erupt from the nose, leading you into the palate which is nicely accented with bubbles. The bubbles add a nice sense of tension to what is an otherwise intensely rich drop. A very fun style of wine. Score - 90 (Brad Royale, winealign.com, July 15, 2016) |
