Brut Ptuj Slovenia Penina Rosé
This was a surprise, I normally don’t like Blankenfisk and don’t know much about Slovenian wines, but this was really really enjoyable! Fine bubbles, with a pale red, almost coppery color, with a restrained nose of hibiscus, fresh red plum, and hints of orange. Almost medium bodied, crisp and fresh, with hints of red apple, fresh watermelon with a little vegetal wine in there as well, maybe even some acidic peach and pomegranate, but nice and dry, with a gently lingering, mineral finish.
