Daosa Picadilly Sparkling Rose 2022

Disgorged September 2024

This is 66/30/4% pinot meunier/pinot noir/chardonnay. Disgorged September 2024. This is a delight. Frisky sparkling of great energy, immense character, light savouriness and distinct, expressive mineral charm. A striking saline, briny vein through tart cranberry, rosehip tea, crisp red cherry and dashes of sweet spice, green almond and white pepper. So fragrant; tightly wound fizz with a light, white balsamic zing in tow. Quite focused in its way. So much character here, fine detail in fruit, savouriness, minerality and pristine bubbles. Wonderful stuff. 96 points, drink 2024-2030, Mike Bennie, Halliday Wine Companion.
