TASTING NOTE: The 2012 Rose Brut Nature Espumante is all Baga. This nice sparkler is from a vintage the winery lauds as exceptional for sparklers. Dry, powerful and a bit bitter on the end, this is a rather intense and very crisp pink that offers a lot of value for the price range. It is also high in character, just a little earthy as well as gripping, with considerable tension on the finish. It won't always seem like your easy, walk-a-round bubbles, the acidity and dryness balancing out the good fruit, but it is pretty fine ... Drink now-2020.
