CASA BOHER EXTRA BRUT Traditional method, Mendoza |

CASA BOHER |
Argentine sparklers can vary from off-dry, fizzy, fruit bombs to dry, attractive, crowd-pleasers - all usually at reasonable prices. This blend of 70% Chardonnay and 30% Pinot Noir has a bright light salmon colour with a steady stream of reasonably small bubbles. The nose is attractive enough albeit totally non-Champagne in stye with some plummy-ripe-apple fruit, and hints of roses along with a touch of minerality. Dry, medium bodied, harmonious, slightly spicy, bright, fruity, plummy-melon flavours with a fairly crisp, pleasing finish. A crowd-pleaser that you can drink it anytime. It has 12.9% alcohol with 12 g/L residual sugar and 10.5 g/L total acidity. NEW in Vintages. |

TASTING NOTE: Combining Pinot Noir with 30% Chardonnay, this is another impressive sparkling release from Pedro Rosell, showing more aged characters than the younger Brut release. Toasty, focused and dry with lovely weight and hints of umami and dried mushroom. Classy fizz. Drink date: 2017-21. Score - 93 (timatkin.com, Argentina Special Report 2017) |
