SPARKLING WINE

GONZÁLEZ BYASS NUTTY SOLERA MEDIUM OLOROSO SHERRY DO, Spain Another arch-classic bottling from González Byass, medium-sweet as advertised, balanced by the pleasantly bitter-nutty-caramelized flavours of such long, oxidative barrel ageing. The finish lingers on and on, and complexity is excellent in the category. Enjoy lightly chilled with cured ham and hard cheeses, or slow braised game dishes with lots of matching umami. Tasted January 2024. Score: 91 (John Szabo, MS, winealign.com) Medium 35204 (S) 750 ml $21.95 1 Featured in Would you like wine with that? LA GALINIERE SENSATION ROSÉ SPARKLING France This sparkling rosé has a wonderful, lively mousse and a bright, quite dynamic character. It shows grapefruit, lime, and tangy red fruit, with raspberry and redcurrant notable and upfront. A wine to chill and enjoy as a sipper or paired with snackables like charcuterie, grilled veggies or spicy shrimp. Light & Fruity 46890 (M) 750 ml $19.95 1 [Though not the same bottling as reviewed by William Kelley, this will display a similar complexity and flavour profile.] Disgorged in June 2018, the NV Brut Grand Cru Rosé bursts from the glass with an inviting bouquet of rose petals, Griotte cherries, red apples and orange rind. On the palate, it’s medium to full-bodied, broad and fleshy, with a ripe core of fruit, a youthfully frothy mousse and succulent acids, concluding with an expansive finish. This is a charming, fruit driven rosé ... Drink date: 2018-2028.
