Côtes de Provence, Provence, France
On the Lawn at Tanglewood this evening with the Boston Symphony Orchestra. Our guest conductor David Newman is leading a live-to-picture performance of Leonard Bernstein’s score for “West Side Story”, originally directed by Robert Wise and Jerome Robbins, and with lyrics by Stephen Sondheim.
For live-to-picture productions, the orchestra performs the entire movie score in real time as the film unspools. (Vocals, dialogue and effects are isolated from the original music track.) The BSO installed very fancy and large LED screens on the perimeter of the Shed facing the Lawn, amazing!
Very nice light Salmon color. Nice fruit, 50% Cinsault & 50% Grenache. Very tasty, much better than their still rosé.

Strawberry, candied apple, cream, mineral, yeast. A little fruitier on the palate than expected. Good for cheap.

12.5% alc.
A blend of Cinsault and Grenache.
Extra Brut must mean something else in Provence...as I personally (based on Champagne scaling) would call this a Sec.
Too bad as I find good bread, yeast, nuttiness in this and think with less dosage it could have been a strong contender.
Probably still a panty dropper and a pleasing quaffable bubbly for most.
