Sparkling Rosé

The wine

The dry finish gives Hollow Leg Sparkling Rosé much of its appeal. Tart fruit lingers after the swallow, with mouthwatering acidity keeping the closing impression fresh. The fruit carries into the close with the same tart definition found on the palate, giving the lingering flavors a dry, mouthwatering frame.

Pale salmon pink in the glass, it opens with delicate floral and lychee aromas. Red berries and a light citrus accent sit alongside them. The palate brings red apple and yellow plum into the mix, with red berries maintaining a link to the nose. Brisk acidity gives the fruit definition and keeps the overall profile bright.

Lively carbonation adds lift and a refreshing texture. The bubbles and acidity work together to carry the fruit through the palate and into the finish; the impression stays dry throughout. Its appeal lies in that combination of clear fruit, energetic sparkle and tart freshness. Complexity is modest, so the flavors offer a straightforward pleasure rather than much depth. This is an enjoyable sparkling rosé whose freshness and precision make the strongest case for the glass.
