| CUVÉE JANINE SPARKLING ROSÉ 2012 VQA Prince Edward County |
| Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
HUFF |
| Medium deep reddish pink colour. Attractive, gently toasty, ripe plum puree nose with some mineral notes. Fairly dry, medium bodied, well structured, very slightly spicy, mouthfilling, tangy, plum-strawberry flavours with a lingering, crisp, very effervescent finish. Nice value! |

| TASTING NOTE: A much finer expression than the inaugural Janine Rose sparkling from Huff in my view, this 100% pinot noir is crisp, taught, dry and vibrant, with seemingly less dosage (sugar) than the 2010, yet still fully ripe and focused on inviting tart red berry fruit. Biscuity, yeasty-leesy notes add their own dimension of flavour without impinging on the fruit-dominant palate, making this a lively, fruity rosé for enjoyment now or short term hold. Nicely balanced and enjoyable overall. Score - 90 (John Szabo, M.S., winealign.com, July 16, 2014) |
