| 75 | | | 92 | JaneGarvey | Atlanta | Georgia | USA | Brut rosé goes with so many foods, it's almost impossible to mess up a pairing (only cheese might be tricky). This one originates in Austria, thus is pronounced with a hard "g" and not, as with the Alsace Schlumberger, with a soft "g." Grape type: Pinot Noir, here known as Blauer Burgunder, the wine presents a lovely delicate pink hue. Delicacy aalso marks the soft red fruit aromas, while the full-bodied mousse settles down to a fine, pinpoint persistent bead. Elegant, fresh red fruit characters and good acidity to refresh the palate keep one coming for more sips. Just 8 grams per liter of residual sugar, making it well below the brut threshold (15 g/l). Serve chilled, about 45-50ºF/7-10ºC in tall tulip-shaped Champagne flutes. Enjoy with light appetizers: tiny Asian dumplings with Ponzu dipping sauce; skewered grilled shrimp; small crab cakes with rémoulade; crawfish salad; grilled tiny ribs with mild barbecue sauce.
