Description
RUINART SECOND SKIN ROSE CHAMPAGNE NV, from Maison Ruinart Champagne House, Côte des Blancs and Montagne de Reims
Tasting Notes from Wine Spectator, “This offers all the trim sleekness of a well-built racing sailboat, while the flavors unfurl on the palate like a full spinnaker sail. Macerated raspberry and poached apricot fruit is underscored by smoke and toast notes, and pleasing hints of crystallized honey, tangerine zest and dried thyme echo on the mouthwatering finish. Drink now through 2030.” WINE SPECTATOR 94 POINTS
Tasting Notes from James Suckling, “Very attractive, bright and fragrant red fruits on the nose here. This has a wealth of fresh yeasty characters, fresh pastry and bread dough, plus red fruits, pink grapefruit, and some floral notes too. The palate has a strong nectarine and light cherry flavor thread. Chardonnay has a lot to say here; the texture is creamy and the balance right on the money. Drink now.” JAMES SUCKLING 93 POINTS
