TASTING NOTE
Thorn Pinot Brut Rose 2021
sparkling wine
A wine with a very rich aroma and flavour palate! This spcial blend of pinot noir and auxerrois turned out very well and gives an exciting combination of red fruit, stonefruit and citrus. Sweet strawberries, raspberry, nectarine, apricot, rose-hips, rhubarb, and the bitterness of mandarin peel. It is all there in one glass! Lovely!

Detailed Tasting Notes
Wine tasting: 22 Aug 2023
Appearance
A clear, salmon colored wine with medium color intensity and clear petillance
Nose
The nose is clean, youthful and of medium+intensity with fruity characteristics of red fruit and stone fruit: strawberry jam, raspberry, nectarine, apricot, rose-hips, rhubarb, elderflower and lychee.
Palate
The wine is dry with medium+ acidity, medium alcohol and body and a delicate mousse. Flavour intensity is medium+ with characteristics of red fruit and citrus. We smell a wide palate of raspberries, strawberries, red currant, cranberry, rose-hips and the bitterness of mandarin peel. The wine has a pleasant ending of medium+ length.
Quality Assessment
In the beginning, the mousse is somewhat harsh, due to releasing yeasts but that softens after a while.
A very good wine, ready to drink, not suitable for ageing.
