Lovely creamy mouse on this off dry Rose NV sparkler from Jansz in Tasmania. Floral and fruity with strawberry and lightly toasted brioche. Nicely balanced, vibrant and pleasant soft bubbles on the palate. Aug. 2018.
Pale salmon in colour with fine mousse & medium+ intensity on the nose.
Positives: If I tried this sparkling blind I would have said that’s it’s made in the classic champagne method. The wine features toasty brioche, strawberry, apple crumble pie, pink grapefruit, lemon, orange rind & limestone. Medium body with good acidly & fairly long length.
Negatives: Some sour notes on the finish. Drink now on its own or pair it with cheese & tomato omelette.

Out of 5 stars, I rated this wine: 4
Medium-high intensity nose of cherry, strawberry, currant and ripe red berry aromas. Pleasing ripe red berry replays on the palate with fine mousse, fresh acids, and a touch creamy texture. Excellent length on the long, persistent finish. Tasted Feb/2019. Score: 90+ pts
