4/4 Tasting - Veleta Brut Vino Espumoso Rosado

Name: Veleta Brut Vino Espumoso Rosado
Variety: Unknown
Country: Spain
Year: NV
Price: $3.95

Shop's Review: Rosé salmon with copper reflections.  Slow rising fine bubble that forms “lace” and “rosary”.  In the nose is complex and elegant with red fruit, citric, exotic, fresh flowers, and notes of dry fruits and dry flowers.  Fresh, gentle, and alive. Perfectly integrated “perlage” with serious and subtle flavors of dry fruits, pomegranate and lemonade.  Long lasting scent of flowers and herbs.

My Review: This peach colored and slightly carbonated rosé smelled like tart grape juice.  My palete detected hints of wood and light spice.  It almost tasted like a light beer.

I did not drink this wine with food.
