Mumm Napa Brut Rosé

What a roll Mumm Napa is on with their new releases. This blush wine shows the level of richness and elegance the winery has achieved lately. Made from 85% Pinot Noir and 15% Chardonnay, it has deliciously forward flavors of raspberries, strawberries, gingersnap cookies and vanilla lemon custard, with the bubbly froth and tart yeastiness of a fine sparkling wine.

More pink than salmon in the glass, the nose is dominated by fresh red berry fruit, with a hint of cherry; the acidity keeps the wine lively on the palate, and the finish is long and balanced; a great example of a rosé, the wine has plenty of weight to pair with a wide range of foods.

Luscious and festive, this rosé has a light pink color, with floral strawberry and cream aromas followed by succulent raspberry, graham cracker and mineral flavors that have a crisp finish. Drink now through 2015.

Fresh and lively, yet rich, with strawberry and spicy yeast aromas and lush, ripe flavors of cherry, vanilla and crisp apple. Drink now.

Sleek and lively, with rose petal and raspberry aromas and crisp, layered citrus, strawberry and vanilla spice flavors that are wrapped up with vibrant acidity. Drink now through 2012.

What an easy-to-drink, delicious bubbly this is. With a golden salmon color, it’s rich in flavors of strawberry, raspberry, lime, vanilla and yeast. It finishes with a subtle sweetness. Pair it with sushi, sashimi or ham-based dishes.

Aromas of rose petal and strawberry lead to crisp, pretty flavors of raspberry, pear and creamy vanilla. A fun quaff. Drink now.

A bit rough and scoury, but so delicious in flavor, you forgive it. Attracts for its raspberries, rose petals, brioche and vanilla, and the racy acidity cleanses the mouth.
