Tasting- Chandon Sweet Cuvee
Name: Chandon Sweet Cuvee NV
Variety: Rose Blend
Region: California
Price: $9.95
Vintage Cellar Review: This wine is an innovative sparkling wine style revealing vibrant stone fruit and floral aromas with rich, luscious mouthfeel. This wine enlivens the senses and sparks spontaneous moments,
complementing your passion for a good life.
My Review: Ugh, another word I can't put an accent mark over.... Its ok because the descriptor of the smell that I came up with for this one was hilarious and spot-on. My friend at the tasting said it smelled like pink, but I thought it had a slight edge to it. So kind of like pink that had pennies lying in it for a while. The t aste was super good too. A nice neutral, balance of acidity, a little bit of pepper and some strawberry notes mixed in as well. Overall a solid sparkling wine that I would pair with many an appetizer, especially a bruschetta.
