English bubbles. Strawberries and cream! Underripe strawberries, creamy strawberry spread on the nose. Chalky. Pink lady/Fuji Apple type crisp on the palate. Strawberry short bread finish. Very solid. Nice wine, @Mark Flesher . — 7 years ago

I don't have a lot of experience with Rosé bubbles to begin with. But this is very much balanced and quite a bit more balanced than I was expecting. Nose of strawberries and cream. Entry was more of a slightly underripe strawberry with some melon and cream. Nice medium bubbles. Not too big and obnoxious and makes the wine seem a little lighter. A little over 40% Pinot noir and about 30/30 Pinot meunier and Chardonnay. 12% abv. In a nice spot.

Bloomsbury Brut Sparkling Chardonnay Blend

First dance with British bubbles, not Champagne but pretty damn close. Very good structure and acid. Over priced when you compare it to NV Champs. But The region is now on my radar and I am looking forward to things to come. — 9 years ago

Jack London Vineyard Sonoma Valley Zinfandel 1995

1995 vintage Zinfandel. Firm upper cork gave way a bit on the inside lower half inch but removed it all with a little care. That cork was Tight for twenty years. Must have been bold when young. It was pale light red, almost heavily faded but smelled sweet. Not as sweet to the taste but a mellow and a hint of cranberry after airing out. Dry. — 11 years ago

Camel Valley

Brut Rosé Pinot Noir 2012

Beautiful rose gold color, lots of bubbles. Bread on the nose with hints of green apples, ripe honeycrisps, a little nail polish remover. Palette sees fresh, ripe apples, medium+ acid, a complex long, smooth finish. Delightful sparkling that (IMO) is far better than non rose brut. Fun with popcorn and oscars! — 9 years ago
