DAOSA Rosé 2022
Author: Tim White
Smells pure and vital; has a real energy to it. Cane berry pippiness; tiny iced liquid raspberry seeds. A sniff of sweet leather and short, crumbly pastry. Bursts with deep cane berry pippy fruit on the palate too—loganberryish. A rosehip sumac edginess also. Excellent texture here: super-fine fizziness and extract. There’s subtle mouth aroma wafts of Serrano and then goji berry sweet-sharpness.
If you let it sit a little—warm and open up—it gets plumper through the middle, and there’s more still winey width. Classy pink méthode this, and one which I wouldn’t mind revisiting with another 6-12 months in bottle. I reckon there may be more to come.
