Jacob's Creek Sparkling Rose


A delicious sparkler from down under.

Ah, I enjoy my sparkling wines. Love the little bubbles exploding in my mouth and tickling my nose. I've become especially fond of dry rose wines. I don't wear pink, but I will drink it.

Jacob's Creek has a real winner with their Sparkling Rose - it is vintaged from Australian Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grapes. I enjoy it with company and food. It is pleasingly crisp, refreshing, with bright delicate fruit that does not intrude on the finish. This is not an expensive wine, but it does have class. I don't know how widely distributed this wine is, I can find it in this part of the world, but not the other part.

If you are planning a wedding - this bottle of bubbly should be mandatory at the reception. Summer and late summer parties would be incomplete without the pink from Jacob's Creek.

I like it and suggest you try some if you can find it where you live.
