Tasting Notes

WE98

An awesome rosé, just a tremendous feat. Made from 11 vineyards in 4 counties, it shows a masterful art of the blend. Insanely rich in toasted bread and lees, showing the influence of six years in the bottle. A tremendous core of strawberries, raspberries, orange zest, roasted macadamia, roasted coconut, pear liqueur and honey lasts into the finish. Despite the richness, the wine is dry. So lovely now you can hardly keep your hands off, but it should age gracefully for the next 10–15 years.

CG97

This latest version of Schramsberg’s very top Rosé is a tour de force of Méthode Champenoise winemaking, and, if built with a fine supporting cast of fruit, this wine is about pastry shop richness and layers of minerals and creamy yeast. It is every bit as beautifully crafted and balanced as it is rich and plentifully bubbled, and it exhibits stunning length at the finish. To be sure, it is not a winsome Rosé to quaff at garden parties, and it very much deserves to be instead set aside for special occasions.
