Tasting-Dom Michel Thomas

Name: Dom Michel Thomas Sancerre Rose
Variety: %100 Pinot Noir                 


Region: Loire   
Country: France

Year: 2013

Winery Review: Bright orange-pink, Lively, mineral-tinged aromas of fresh red berries, orange peel, and honeysuckle, with a hint of anise building in the glass. Dry and nervy in the mouth, offering vibrant strawberry and orange pit flavors and rose pastille. A floral element comes on the finish, and lingers with spicy persistence. Stephen Tanzer-90.
My Review: In the nose I noticed a sweet and juicy peach aroma so sweet I was reminded of a peach Dum-Dum lollipop or white grape juice. Dry on the palate, bitter and citrusy with hints of juicy white grape and an underlying asparagus flavor.
Food?:  did not pair with food.
