Oliver's Taranga Chica Mencia Rosé 2022

 

Picked on Valentine's Day. Maybe that's why the colour is deeper than usual? Mencia Rosé from McLaren with a little more body than previous too.

The bones of its usual self are here except it tastes a little like a ferment. Firm, red apple skin, pomegranate, watermelon husk and a flash of white pepper. There's just something that doesn't sit quite right. It needs food to help it along. A snag on bread in the park would do it, but that ferment thing...

Drink now.
