Tasting - Veleta Brut Vino Espumoso Rosado


Name: Veleta Brut Vino Espumoso Rosado

Variety: Blended

Region: Granada

Country: Spain

Year: NV

Price: $3.95

Shop Review: Rosé salmon with copper reflections. Slow rising fine bubble that forms “lace” and “rosary”. In the nose is complex and elegant with red fruit, citric, exotic, fresh flowers, and notes of dry fruits and dry flowers. Fresh, gentle, and alive. Perfectly integrated “perlage” with serious and subtle flavors of dry fruits, pomegranate and lemonade. Long lasting scent of flowers and herbs.

My Review: Spicy tones on the nose, with some floral hints as well.  If you ask me, it honestly thought this wine smelt like skunk.  A floral tasting wine, very similar to a champagne since it has a bitter bite.

With Food? No
