3B Blanc de Blancs Bical

A perfect aperitif when the sun is warm but the air is brisk w/ saline... bitter grapefruit peel, softened by a rich mousse and red berry flavors.

gotta admit that i don’t think the label lends itself to expressing the quality of the wine. a pretty rosé with subtle strawberry and pink of course) grapefruit.

Sparkling rose from Portugal, blend of baga and bical. If you know a better way to slide in off the beach and into happy hour on the deck, speak now.

A Portuguese sparkling rosé, who would have thought. Quite nice

Returning home to a surprising fizzy hit with sushi.

Boner

Champagne Method Portuguese sparkler. Blend of native Portuguese grapes including Maria Gomes (23%), Bical (70%) and Cercial (7%). Aromas and flavors of pear, citrus fruits, white flowers, wet stones, honey and anise. Hint of chalk, smoke and minerals on the long finish. Expressive effervescence and creamy texture. (Lees Aging?) Unique, interesting and easy to drink. Excellent QPR.

Sharp crisp apples with a dry finish. Very tasty. But not as excellent as the rose from the San winery.

Super crisp and tart. Lots and lots of bubbles! Really interesting bottle.

Fantastic. Crazy deal, too.
