Advantages: Very easy to drink. Disadvantages: Very easy to drink.
I can honestly say that I will never forget the day I first tasted this wine. It was a sunny Saturday afternoon, right at the end of August 1996 and I was standing in a beautiful garden high up on the edge of Ilkley Moor. Unusually for me I was wearing a swirly pink dress which, quite unintentionally, matched the glass of wine which my son-in-law pressed into my hand.
Unless it’s a very superior champagne, with that wonderful deep biscuity taste, ... ...A lot of the cheap ones are so harsh they remind me of paint stripper, so when I was told that this was a Méthode Traditionnelle wine from New Zealand, I was, well, sceptical to say the least. Still, it had been a long day, the sun was shining and condensation was forming on the outside of the glass.
The wine is just on the golden side of pink, almost salmon pink, with the colour coming from the black skins of the Pinot Noir grape. When you smell ...
