NV Regis Fliniaux, Brut Rose

What a giving wine. Marzipan and bright strawberries line the aroma, which is also densely yeasty. There's so much rich Ay terroir in the smell, that you almost forget this is a rose. The flavor's full to the point of being lightly sweet up front, but the big bold bubbles carry it into a dry plush finish of orange blossoms, raspberries, red-skinned pears, minerals, and chocolate. From half bottle.
