SOFIA ROSÉ 2016 Monterey County |
Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
FRANCIS COPPOLA |
Bright day-glo light reddish colour. Spicy, plum-apple nose with some bright mineral notes. Dry, medium to medium-light bodied, slightly spicy, ripe plum-apple flavours with a fairly crisp, lively, very faintly sweet, unoaked finish. Very pleasant and ready-to-drink. This blend of Syrah, Grenache and Pinot Noir comes in a lovely bottle and has 12.8% alcohol on the label (but 13.2% according to the winery website) and 3 g/L residual sugar. The 2015 appeared in Vintages (**/**+) with 88.5-points on June 25, 2016 at $24.95 and was an Explorer Selection. |

Named for Francis Coppola's daughter Sofia, this is crafted from Syrah and Pinot Noir and offers appealing notes of red flowers, strawberry, cherry, grapefruit and spice. Elegant and lively, this will be a tangy, fresh and popular addition to your summer entertainment portfolio. Enjoy as a sipper or pair with salmon. |
