Veleta Brut Vino Espumoso Rosado Tasting

Name: Veleta Brut Vino Espumoso Rosado
Varietal: Tempranillo
Region: Granada
Country: Spain
Year: NV
Price: $3.95

Vintage Cellar's Review:
Rosé salmon with copper reflections. Slow rising fine bubble that forms “lace” and “rosary”. In the nose is complex and elegant with red fruit, citric, exotic, fresh flowers, and notes of dry fruits and dry flowers. Fresh, gentle, and alive. Perfectly integrated “perlage” with serious and subtle flavors of dry fruits, pomegranate and lemonade. Long lasting scent of flowers and herbs.

My Review:
An interesting copper color at first. The nose is filled with citrus, spring vegetables and floral scents. The body was carbonated and had hints of oak and vegetables. Overall, the high acidity and flavors led to an unbalanced wine.

Tasted without food.
