Cruzat Larraín, Rosé Cuveé Reserve, attractive sparkling from Mendoza




Cruzat Larraín, Rosé Cuveé Reserve, By Bodega Cruzat, Mendoza, USD 18
Nice and Chapagne style sparkling from Mendoza. Quite attractive balance between apple and peach from Chard and ripe cherry fruit from Pinot. Soft toast from `sur lies´ makes it more complex. No citrus like component whatsoever. I´d say a 87 point sparkling with very good value for the price. A bubbly that may go bright for 5 years no doubt.
