Schramsberg Brut Rosé 2011

Wine Enthusiast 92 pts | Wine Spectator 91 pts

Varieties:  61% Pinot Noir, 39% Chardonnay

Appellation:  Sonoma Coast, California

Winemaking notes:  The finished blend is aged on the yeast in the bottle for about two years, just enough to achieve refined effervescence and toastiness without diminishing its refreshing, vibrant appeal

Tangerine & strawberry

Aromas of tangerine, strawberry, cranberry and watermelon. Its fruitful nose is complemented by notes of candied ginger and warm pastry dough.  On the palate, there are flavors of mandarin orange, pomelo, pineapple and strawberry.  The wine has a fresh, bright acidity with a long, crisp and refreshing finish.
