Notiz zum Wein: Redoma Rosé / 2001

Dinner with Dirk Niepoort

This is about as serious as Rosé gets. 25 % is fermented in new wood, some in old wood and the rest in stainless steel. Dirk says that the wood helps to keep it alive in the ageing process, and thinks that this may age for a few years. It's a deep pink/red colour. Savoury, fresh nose with some herby, strawberry fruit. The palate is savoury and fresh with herb-tinged taut fruit. Still tasting youthful with no sign of the wood.

89/100 points (= very good+)
