| 75 | | | 90 | JaneGarvey | Atlanta | Georgia | USA | In Anjou, a rosé, whether still or sparkling, will be made from one of the Cabernets, most likely Cabernet Franc. That’s the case with this delightful sparkling wine, made entirely from Cabernet Franc, thus is a “blanc de noir.” With a visually enticing delicate pale pink color, this medium-bodied dry sparkling wine shows a fine persistent bead. The aromas announce an elegant wine, with delicate red fruit characters and some herbal notes. On the palate, Cabernet Franc’s character shows, with a suggestion of cold tea in mid palate. A slight, pleasant malt note closes the crisp finish. Good acidity. Foods: spiced pecans; liver mousses; marcona almonds drizzled with honey; caprino (creamy goat cheese); grilled shrimp with sun-dried tomato aioli; shrimp paste or pickled shrimp with tomato; rillettes; pork roast; roast chicken.
