$32, 3 stars, 88 points, chambourcin, Loudoun County, rose, virginia
Pale salmon colored with medium viscosity (12% ABV). The nose has medium intensity aromas of strawberry, lemon pith, tangerine, lanolin, white blossom, and papaya. The palate is dry with high acidity, and a medium (-) body. Medium (+) intensity flavors of strawberry and lemon pith, with some tangerine and white blossom notes. The wine is bracing and the finish runs medium (-) in length but the acidity goes on for days. It’s ‘refreshing’. I’m pairing it with Cajun Shrimp and Andouille- should work out perfectly. 88 points from this Chamborcin based rosé which runs $32 ex-chateaux making it a 3 star wine to drink over the next few years. Salut….
