Vintage Cellar Tasting - Dom Michel Thomas




Name: Dom Michel Thomas
Grape Variety: Sancerre Rose Pinot Noir
Region: Loire
Country: France
Year: 2013
Price: $8.95
Stephen Tanzer Review: Score: 90. Bright orange-pink. Lively, mineral-tinged aromas of fresh red berries, orange peel and honey suckle, with a hint of anise building in the glass. Dry and nervy in the mouth, offering vibrant strawberry and orange pith flavors and a suggestion of rose pastille. The floral element comes back on the finish, which lingers with very good spicy persistence. 
My Review: The smell was very acidic with hints of lemon. I could feel it in the back of my throat, that's how powerful it was. It was pretty watery at the beginning with a strong grape fruit blast on the mid palette. It was strong and full bodied. 

*Did not have with food
