Henry of Pelham Cuvée Catharine Rosé Brut VQA

Description

Here's a stylish, traditional-method, value-laden gem that's hitting the shelves just in time for the Holiday Season and, of course, beyond. Mousse froths in the glass adorned by aromas of red berry fruit, baking bread and spice. The fine-bead bubbles deliver a delectable, mouth-watering experience of strawberry and red currant flavour, balanced and charming. The lip-smacking finish layers on good acidity via wisps of blood orange. Keep a few bottles on hand. Score - 5 (Vic Harradine,winecurrent.com,Feb. 13, 2016)

Tasting Notes

Pale salmon colour with fine beads; enticing aromas of brioche, wild strawberry and lemon curd; extra dry, medium bodied, with flavours of biscuits, strawberry rhubarb pie, fresh apples and a creamy textured mousse.

Serving Suggestion

Enjoy on its own, in a cocktail or with oysters and caviar.
